Christmas Eve IS the promo

[straightorbroken]

Good morning midnight... it's Christmas (Eve).

 

[Star]

Awww Kylie and Dannii just went downstairs and saw their (empty) stockings on the tree and now they think the elves came in last night to leave them in preparation for tonight, they were jumping with excitement!

 

[COB]

Wish I'd got up extra early, I wanted to call today's thread And Christmas Eve Was Weak as a tribute to @Phoenix

 

[straightorbroken]

I don't mind if @ (bloody hell what is the giraffe calling themself?) wants to tweak it around and start from your post I got my Cristina fix in on another thread (it's a pop classics forum exclusive).

Happy Christmas Eve

I'm watching The Greatest Store In The World, then I'm off down the farm shop.

How many farms are you looking to buy?

Just a couple, some really picturesque, arable estates I can sell to housing developers for bare profit.

 

[big ron]

Pick us up a couple of smallholdings please

Arable immediately transports me back to 1st Year Geography lessons.

See also Jethro Tull and crop rotation.

This reminded me of that recurring fb advert inviting people to buy 1sq.meter land in Scotland to get the title of Lord or something

No worries. Don't worry about paying me back, 'tis the season and all.

No no, just posting my stupid pun was enough to get it out of my brain - I am now satisfied

Loving the farm buying chat this morning.

As is traditional, we're off to a shack on a coastal island to buy fresh fish, look at some boats and have a pub lunch.

Then we're hosting my parents this year for the annual sunset fish supper, which feels like a big deal, but is essentially SERVING FISH and drinking wine.

I'm POLISH TODAY

Healing I hope Merry Christmas!

 

[Soldi]

I miss our Christmas Eve tradition of going to the pantomime

 

[Soldi]

Also why do middle aged people only buy the fancy M&S biscuits at Christmas?

 

[Marina Salty]

There was a tradition pre-covid that this morning children would go around people's houses and knock on their doors and sing the christmas carols and then you had to give them christmas sweets and money.

 

[Sheena]

MORNING ALL!

Still fairly full of cold, still waiting on a PCR test, still neg lat flowing, so still going to the inlaws, but then you can't have it ALL, can you?

 

[Sheena]

In POSITIVE news, I've just iced my Christmas cake and have sold 17 12" singles in a bulk sale on Discogs, so that's nice.

 

[AGinAg (37)]

Ooh double daily thread SCANDAL

 

[Sheena]

Oh I looked and missed it. WHY WOULD YOU JUST CALL IT FRIDAY?

 

[Sheena]

I realise this isn't a very inclusive opinion of me, in fairness...

 

[Sheena]

Someone MERGE to SPARE MY SHAME

The other topic was ANTI CHRISTIAN!

[Sheena]

Oh, my title was best, though- THANKS LOVES!

 

[Lucille]

NEGATIVE. Thank god as I awoke to a MAD message from Mum telling me to come home whatever the result

 

[Inner Smile]

Off out to deliver some presents then i'm cracking open that wine!

 

[big ron]

Oh no you dont

 

[big ron]

Fucking compulsory that shit

 

[big ron]

I am annoying myself, gravy is prepped, red cabbage done, I’ve got two loaves worth of sourdough proving and just making some vegetarian haggis stuffing.

 

[big ron]

I need to leave some stuff for tomorrow or I’ll have too much time for drinking

 

[straightorbroken]

No no, just posting my stupid pun was enough to get it out of my brain - I am now satisfied

I'm definitely setting my alarm to do it again some other Friday. It will itch my soul

 

[Diddy]

Finished work, ate too much fried chicken (Japanese thing), watched a Christmas movie (Tokyo Godfathers) and I’m going to get some festive dick tonight.

HO HO HO

 

[straightorbroken]

In other news, got my boost jab, went and found a noisy cuddly toy to put in my niece's present that will annoy my sister and hopefully amuse me to make up for not wanting to be there. Going for coffee later, then a swim (I hope it's absolutely dead so I don't get out-paced by floating 80 year olds). A nice relaxing day.

I was a virgin in 2021. Holy shit, I'm such a prude when I want to be.

@Diddy know it’s Christmas are you doing anything special tomorrow? Isn’t it tradition to get KFC on Christmas Day in Japan or am I making that up?
