What are you guys doing on Christmas day??
« on: 22 December 2022, 21:16:13 »

Me! We are going down the pub early doors after prepping the veg etc etc....then back home for a load more vino/beer then get stuck into everything...everything!! until early evening where cold meats etc are on the table. Pheasant, venison and all that Scottish stuff! Lovely!!
FAF* by that time.

Lock ALL doors just in case a blacky sneaks in just like the tv adverts!

Back in Aviemore so effing freezing.

* FatAsFoock.
Wishing all OOFers a great Christmas!! :y :y :y

AND lock your doors!!

Out to Miami tomorrow, back Christmas lunchtime, unless we have another IT meltdown, in which case I will get stuck there.

Although it's looking as cold as it was the last time I went in 1989 ;D

Supposed to be some severe weather in the States in the next few days. Think you should be ok in Miami though. ;)

In Spain, they have a big family meal on Christmas Eve.

Going out on Christmas Day for lunch is the norm. We are doing that. Then back home to watch TV ( after siesta of course)

All to do again at New Year and again for 3 Kings ( when the Maji apparently turned up with gifts of gold, laughter and tree bark) 3 Kings is when the kids get their presents. Most places have a float that goes round the street lobbying sweets out at the waiting kids.

Nice walk in the morning with Buddy the Boxer, then spend the day at our daughters with all the family eating & drinking, haven't bought anything from Argos so there won't be any black people joining in with the festivities 😂..🎄🎄🎄🎄

I plan on eating to excess at lunchtime, then laying on the sofa all afternoon, sleeping and farting.

Which probably means, as normal, pressie day will be boxing day for us.

By the time we've fed the Outlaws, and I've had a snooze, I'll be too far down the CBA road to be opening anything* to want pressies.


*Alcoholic beverages excluded.  I see she has stocked up on cheap buzz fizz, so suspect I'll be necking several bottles of that on Sunday.

We've bought a couple of bottles of Jap gin which is rated at 43% Volume compared with normal gin at 37.5% volume.

Also proper 'cold war' strength Russian vodka.

Also plenty of red wine and rum and bottled 5% lager and Pernod ( the stuff that changes colour) and rum,  both dark and white)

As teens we used to make  our own 'moonshine' which was beyond evil and several of us ended up in hospital. >:D

I'm sensible now though. :)
