BigBo10 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Went into a cupboard to get a bottle of No. 27 Jack Daniels out to show my mate who’d never heard of it. While getting to it I discovered I’ve a bottle of Gentleman Jack in there too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Out for dinner today. Result. Was at my mum’s a couple of years back. As a starter we got melon wrapped in “prosciutto” (raw bacon). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotgun Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 This is our 15th Christmas in Colorado and for only the second time, we have snow falling on the morning of. It's Bing Crosby-esque out there. I'm sitting here with an Irish Coffee to get the heart started and if Mrs. Shotgun ever stops farting around in the kitchen, we can get on with the gift grab.

MONKMAN Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Woke up this morning, opened presents with my girlfriend and had a breakfast that consisted of red onion and chive bagels, smoked salmon, cream cheese and poached eggs. This was accompanied with wine. She left not long after and went back home to her folks in deepest Galloway. I then watched Jurassic Park in my jammies, while having another glass or two of wine. Went out for dinner at 2 with my folks, to the same place we go every year. Food was phenomenal as usual and more wine was consumed. Afterwards, went back to my folks where me and my step-dad polished off a bottle of Taylor’s 2007 vintage port. I’m now back home on my own, drinking more wine, eating sweets and watching David Attenborough. I fucking love Christmas, so so much. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Cuddy Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 The kids were up at 15 minutes past midnight. At 4am I had to tell them again to get back to bed. I then had to wake them at 7.45. A morning of mayhem and excitement before I went to work for the back shift. A quiet back shift after an apparently hellish morning. My secret santa gifts had so obviously had a lot of thought go into them, very suited to me. It's been a lovely day after I'd been dreading it for ages. I'm feeling very grateful for the people I have around me. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out with the folks earlier today and a few years shed when reminiscing about my big sis and my dad. Brilliant having the youngsters around and seeing similarities in them with family members they never even knew. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted December 25, 2017 Share Posted December 25, 2017 Passion fruit profiteroles from M&S. Quite possibly the highlight of my day. To call them orgasmic would be an understatement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Raccoon Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Since around midday on Christmas day, I started feeling quite ill. Didn't really eat much of my Christmas dinner and hardly had a drink then had a feverish sleep. Was supposed to be going to the pub yesterday with friends but had to cancel as I just got worse, couldn't even hold water down and spent the day drifting in and out of sleep. However, I've woke up today feeling fresh as a daisy so will make up for lost time and will be stuffing my face and getting absolutely steaming. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truly a RTBC Well the only thing I managed to hold down was some Chicken and Sweetcorn soup. These Chinese medicines really do the trick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 We got anAmazon Echo from our younger son for Christmas. It’s fucking brilliant, incredible sound quality for such a small device and can choose all music. Lying in conservatory in beautiful sunshine on second bottle of cava listening to 60s and 70s music. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably won’t use half the features but even for music alone it’s fantastic. Just been listening to Deep Purple and Ten Years After. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
