Cracking christmas here. Little un' woke up at 6am and forgot what day it was, when I asked her who had been to our house last night she said 'The Postman ?'

Confusion turned to squeals of delights when she came downstairs and saw a big sack of presents, morning spent unwrapping and assembling various toys. Then off to my folks house for dinner. with my aunt and uncle, wife and daughter. Turkey, Lamb and Pork, all from a farm half a mile down the road. Absolutely beautiful. Then more presents after dinner, little un' squealing again and running around the house holding ponies, mermaids, fluffy dinosaurs etc. Had to help the old man who has got dementia remember how to unwrap his presents, but he got there in the end.

More food, homemade sausage rolls from the butchers and cold meats, cheeses and pickles. Few more glasses of Champagne. Got the sage and onion farts now :)

Mine took an hour and I thought that was a hassle!!
Took me about two hours to get the whole thing fully up and running.

Luv must still be on dial up <laugh>

Mine took an hour, but I did it when he was in bed on Xmas eve and put the disc back in the box, then wrapped it.

Proper preparation prevents piss poor performance.

Luv needs to learn the mantra of the 6 P's

Mine took about an hour but I'm on PS4. I could play the game (friendlies) whilst it installed too
 
We had breakfast during the download so that killed it.

You should have seen me; sausages in the oven, connect to Internet, bacon in oven, register with Xbox live, make a pot of coffee, set up WiFi, start the download, scramble the eggs.
Was blowing up footballs and assembling the pro flick in between.

A bloke has his Christmas day role, don't let them tell you otherwise!!

Been for a run. Bring on the massive pork pie and boiled ham. Probably a good time to crack open the Gewurztraminer.
 
Boxing day match for me, Swansea City v West Ham so likely to be a dour relegation battle.

Turkey sandwich pre match of course.

I'm driving so no beer, which might not be a bad thing.

Possibly but you waste a lot of the potency of the draw that way. Only so much will get through the filter.

well, that was my original complaint, I told him he could waste his dope putting in a filter but he could go **** himself if he thought I'd waste mine, but surprisingly there isn't really that much of a difference, getting stoned wise, between the two. on a side note the Spanish make the worst roaches ever, the tear off the end of a cigarette and use that for a roach, so you're constantly spitting out tobacco once the spliff is about 1/3rd of the way down.
