Clothes, Liz Earle gentlemen's grooming collection, the gin collection, fancy balsamic dispenser, alcoholic hot chocolates, book on bartendering, Bruce Springsteen's autobiography, molten brown stuff and a chocolate orange.

Oh, and the look on the Missus's face when I gave her her main present. 34 years since we met and she's still my main present every single day.

And the joy of seeing how much in love my youngest is with a really decent young man. That'll do Pig, that'll do.


Me Dad won't be here for the second Christmas, my Mum for the 30th. And that's sad. But life and family go on. We'll raise a glass and smile.


Happy Christmas to all who post and lurk on here. May you enjoy a peaceful and fulfilling Christmas break.


All the best from Ernie.

Necked a bottle of Black Sheep at her mams this morning at about 10ish. 2 bottles of fizzy pink stuff already gone with er in doors and the kids(25 and 22). Onto A bottle of Valpolicella now waiting for the pot noodle to be served.

Last nights frivolity is a distant memory but there were some lovely ladies in my local.
 
Brut special reserve (how it used to smell)
Other smelly stuff
Socks
Jumper
Book
Other joint gifts for me and our lass. Which is generally stuff for her.

Feeling ravenous now.

The smell of goose and all the trimmings is wafting up from the kitchens and I'm pinned down by the sleeping little 'un. Torture I tells you.

Can't even reach for me nut cracker.

As for drinks. I'm on-call today and in work tomorrow so that's put the skids on that one.

Merry Christmas.

<wah>

On the Baileys.

My mum brought it with her, it's orange truffle flavoured. It's alright but I wouldn't buy it, original is best.

Served as per Ernies advice; 3 lumps of ice.
 
Joint present: tour of the Bombay Gin distillery in Laverstock.
Box of mixed Wychwood beers
Dash cam
Big bottle of Amaris and Calvin Klein
Jumper and shirt

All settled down for a drop or three of me rum

Bloody hell, Ernie; either the pollen counts high or I just filled up. Might be the Port.

I undestand, I share your sentiment, bloody good, ain't it. :emoticon-0105-wink:

Thinking about the cheese now. Apparently it's the done thing to eat the rind when you have Brie. I'll give it a go, but it doesn't look promising.
