    Fuck up gramps. We all know you'll be sitting at home on your own at Christmas tucking into a polony sausage and a can of Lidl's own make lager, contemplating suicide.

    Any of you like Christmas pudding? I know it is traditional and all but it tastes rank and I won't have it in the house. Haagen Daz all the way for me.

    It's vile. Infact the only thing i don't like about Christmas is the traditional food - can't stand turkey either. Buying presents, the kids nativity plays, losing to a 5 year old on the latest Nintendo game on St Stephens day, getting lashed up and seeing family and friends is all great though.

    Already made. I make it six months in advance and top it up once a month with brandy.

    Pity I can't stand the stuff but the girlfriend loves it.

    I didn't know you did that with pud, thought it was just with Christmas cake.

    My big sister makes them dead early - we all get one for Christmas. All different sizes depending on how many are in the house.

    I get a wee toaty one.

    :(

    I did goose a couple of years back (cooked not shagged). Big old bird it was too but by the time it had cooked through it was half the size. I liked the taste but nobody else did and it didn't make decent sandwiches for Boxing Day either. I got well over a pint of goose fat which made superb roasties and there was enough to do New Year's Day lunch and I froze the rest for the following Christmas.

    Best thing about Christmas has to be turkey and sausage stuffing sandwiches the next day. Better than the main dinner IMO.

    And cashews! How did I forget cashews? Feckin love a cashew nut me.
