Happy Face 29 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Its the right time to start planning tbh. I'm having a nightmare trying to get everyone organised. HF you under the thumb much? Not generally. She's a christmas freak though. She's gone to her mam's today, and took her laptop with her "cos it's got all the christmas ideas on" they need to go through. Think she means for doylies and that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 35029 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Just go to my dad's in the morning, then my or her parent's on a rotation basis. Don't go to my dad's if he's working away. The idea of just stopping in definitely appeals though. I don't really go in for going out much over the christmas period. Stopping in with the fire on watching shit tv ftw. Do you actually have a fire? Yup. Don't try and pick holes in my festive season quim features. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 9064 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Go to the pub on Christmas Eve. Used to be the case that all the lads would be back in the village from Uni or wherever, but that's becoming less and less the case. Pop back to one house or other, have a few whiskeys. Wrap presents in my old bedroom drunk, (We have a tradition of writing cryptic clues on the tags.. lame, but it's a bit of a laugh when I've got no fucking clue what I was on about) My Dad still sneaks stockings into the room, stuffed with deodorant, and various bits and pieces. Wake up around 09:00, have a cup of tea and Lime Marmalade on toast, open the stockings, me and my dad have a wee dram, my mam has a sherry. Then we sit around and open presents. Break for Xmas dinner, then finish off the presents, fall asleep in a chair reading a book. done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooner 243 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Normally complain like a bitter bastard that christmas eve and NYE are the worst nights of the year to be out for a drink. Would like to stop in and watch a film. Then why don't you? Remind me what the fuck do we have a Christmas thread at this time of year for again anyway? We just got the works christmas party invite around. FFS. haha...same here, the office manager is a bit of a christmas fanatic. usually travel home (kootenays to toronto) and visit with the fam, not this year though I'm staying @ home and I'm gonna rip up Red Mtn for the week that the office closes over xmas, then for NYE I'm having my surrogate family come to Red for a shaker of a house party and a couple more days of powder shredding.....all in all a much better (if a little selfish) plan in my view.

trophyshy 6441 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 If I'm up at my dads we always go to the beach with the dog rain or shine, Tynemouth or Seaton Sluice. Couple of pints in the Kings Arms if it's the latter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin 1 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 I find it extremely ironic that most of you don't believe in Christ / Religion yet you all celebrate Christmas. The birth of Jesus CHRIST. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin 1 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 yes but it's supposed to be celebrating the birth of jesus. I just think people shouldn't be celebrating it for the wrong reasons. would be like us celebrating 4th of july Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin 1 Posted September 30, 2010 Share Posted September 30, 2010 Bore off kevin, so you shouldn't celebrate with others if you don't believe in jesus? how very Christian well i just find it rather ironic that people celebrate christmas the birth of christ when they don't believe in him. I'm guessing you're an atheist because if you weren't you'd get my point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
