everyone sorted for crimbo then?

[J@mes]

Funny bought a tin of cadbury's Heros today for crimbo ........................slight problem just opened the tin to see if they taste OK, dont want to be disapointed on Christmas day. better check all different ones out

I often find this to be fatal, as the chocolates NEVER last until Christmas if I break the seal off the barrel!

I haven't even thought about it yet, but I went to a job today and they had their tree up!

Mother-in-law is going to Australia for December so we are going to surprise her by having Xmas on the 21st November. She doesn't know what we are doing but its the full monty Xmas. Dinner, presents, tree and trimmings. She's a great mother-in-law, always keeps me on my toes so I'm getting one back by doing this. Should be fun.

I do Crimbo shopping on the 23rd the pressure means no faffing about on options it the "**** it that will do " shopping

 

[SirKit Breaker]

you all done your shopping yet then ? or are we all last minute madness on here?

Yes, thank you, been dragged kicking and screaming to Meadowhall today with the better half. Plus side, I enjoyed the day off and the sleep in till 9.30am, and we had something to eat in a restaurant there, the food was spot on, the service a bit slow, but gave me time for 4 pints of Amstel...............result.

I should go more often.

Funny you should say that mate.

Went over to meadowhall a couple of years back and nearly did the same as you.
Flew into leeds bradford on a dark winters morning, picked up a hire car and drove to sheffield. Got there about 30 minutes late for an appointment so parked car in the first spot i found and dashed in. Couple of hours later when ready to leave i realised i didn't even know the colour or model of the car i was looking for never mind what coloured zone i was parked in. Walked about car parks for ages pressing key fob at every ford i could see until i got the good old orange flash.
