Miserable ****. Will put some outside lights up tomorrow evening as i don't know when i'll do it otherwise. Tree mid week, as I've no time this weekend or next, got all sorts of stuff on.
Nah! I'm moving and it could end up being a few days before or after Xmas. Not bothering putting out decorations when I'm in the process of packing up the rest of the house.
Kids off school tomorrow, so will fetch tree from local forest, avoiding the mental weekend queues, get Dec's down when we come back and then the wife will set about decorating the 2 rooms, my only job is to put tree up straight and put lights on it, she does everything else, bless her. Then a bit of a buffet type thing, whisky and port comes out and we watch It's A Wonderful Life, it's tradition that bit. Oh and a tin of treats for the night.
Missus put a tree up. Really don’t see the point. Did buy an advent calendar for the dog which he’s enjoyed so far.
There's a chance that a few will be consumed in one night, out on the town next Wed Thurs Friday Sat so Sunday should be a fun night
I don't do much with the outside, I'm not paying a big electricity bill for all the neighbours to look at my house. Tree next weekend. Christmas gravy is a problem as I now have an induction hob so can't make it in the usual way. Going to have a think.
Bought a box of American beers from a website called Beers of Europe lol. I'll post them up as I drink them. Wine from a Virgin wines, all big reds.
Got the Tree and decorations up on weds. I've only got a small house, so there's no need to go ape **** with loads of tacky shiny ****e. Just a nice real tree, some lights and some decorations that my daughter made at school. My little un is still of the age where she believes in Santa and Elves, so I put little gifts in the tree for her to find when she wakes up in the mornings and then act all surprised when she finds them. She's like 'Dad ! the christmas magic has started, look at this !'. That's what it's all about for me
Should probably clarify, I don't light ours up like the Grindwalds or anyhthing. It's just some lights round the fir that's in the front garden (an old real tree from a classroom about a decade ago, it's too big now if anything). I put any spares round the bay tree outside the kitchen window. That's pretty much it.
Mate remember you putting up a photo of you drinking Fosters ffs. You' really should have no input in to what others should drink after that.
