tim2 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I don't like it much TBH. I'm not religious, but I'd actually prefer it if it was just the day off for that and a chance for people to take a break from being RichardHeads on the internet. Everything commercial that flows from Christmas is increasingly horrible. Trees, lights, tinsel, Santa, unnecessary presents, work Christmas parties, the Christmas24 movie channel, Christmas specials on telly. "I am the avenging angel; I come with wings unfurled, I come with claws extended from halfway round the world. I am the God Almighty, I am the howling wind. I care not for your family; I care not for your kin. I come in search of terror, though terror is my own; I come in search of vengeance for crimes and crimes unknown. I care not for your children, I care not for your wives, I care not for your country, I care not for your lives." - (c) Jim Boyes - "The Avenging Angel" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hindle xiii Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 My family have moved it to Monday due us all getting ill. I wasn't madly enthusiastic about it even before becoming unwell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerrumonside ref Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) I’ve bought someone who has had a very bad time recently a gift voucher to privately walk alpacas with her partner around an estate near Derwent water. They love alpacas, llamas etc and will be made up I feel, so I can’t wait to see their face. I’m looking forward to that more than anything else this Christmas and of course a break from work. PS I have no idea if alpacas can swim. Edited December 24, 2021 by Gerrumonside ref 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Futtocks Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I love Christmas, and especially this time, when I get to see my family for the first time in two years. We never really do much, just enjoy being in each others' company. 2 "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.

Mumby Magic Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 I've had the politics with the ex over the boys. She said I "agreed" to not having them for Xmas dinner. It left my mum dad and partner hanging on. I thought can I have them Xmas Eve pls. She says yes. Then I go down to collect the boys yesterday she says can she have them Xmas Eve too cos she's bought them new pajamas!!! Plus she said she'd be lonely. Errmmm if I didn't have them I'd be lonely aswell lol. You have to smile. Sending much love to my fellow TRLers. Anyone struggling or down pm me pls. Then it'll soon be RL season where we can slate Cats for not having enough French, Cornwall will never work, Fev are a joke, Beaumont's a toolbag and Futtocks being hot off the press with his celeb deaths. Take care. 1 Like poor jokes? Thejoketeller@mullymessiah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob8 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Just celebrated Christmas with wife, her Mum and Granny. Because they do it early here. Actually, really nice.

graveyard johnny Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 decided to quit drinking at the end of nov - done 25 days straight now- tonight with friends in the pub was a big test but 4 bottles of 0% lager and an early exit home all's ok- tomorrow with the family all day will be an even bigger test - cos of my lifestyle with gigs and a big circle of friends etc everything seems to revolve around alcohol week in week out - pubs- clubs- parties - round each others houses-etc so decided to jump straight in at the deep end and use xmas to do this a closed door is no object to FLAT STANLEY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
