How you're celebrating Christmas - Page 3

Today was meant to be doing house work but so far I've sat on my ass watching crappy Christmas movies and I might go out tonight instead.

Tomorrow is wrapping pressies and finishing off (and probably finally starting

) the house work.

Christmas day I'll head down my parents and might stop over so I can have a few drinks.

Boxing day is undecided yet.

Today - finished the dining room and assembled the dining table and chairs.Now have somewhere to eat christmas dinner!

Tomorrow, cooked breakfast,bath then off to my sisters' house to have first christmas. Off to see Bee Movie in the afternoon.Home again in evening.

Christmas day, kids get up at about 5am. Open presents then go back for a kip until 9am when we start up Singstar with all the new discs I bought. Eat crap all day, watch Dr Who, drink wine and generally have a good time.

Boxing Day I think some strange people may be descending.

Today is my big sisters birthday so we had chinese. My little sister came home from Italy but has gone off another party. Helped out around the house cleaning up and wrapping final presents.

Tomorrow got to go to the doctors at lunch time then pick my sister up as she is coming for our traditional christmas tradition of staying up until midnight and opening the presents then going to bed.

Christmas day meal with mum, dad and wee sister and watching crappy films on the tellybox.

Pebs · 23-12-2007, 23:08

Today I've done all my food shopping, raaar!! I'm waiting for the kids to go to sleep so I can start wrapping and figure out what I still need to buy.

Tomorrow I'm going shopping for the final pressies, first time ever I've left it this late! I'm sure I should be more worried!

Xmas day it'll be bacon sarnies, pressies and eventually dinner. Then Mike is taking the girls out for the afternoon/evening to his family so I shall be on my todd, eating too much, drinking snowballs and hugging the cat!

Boxing day Mikes parents are coming over (dont ask!! I have no idea either!) but it'll be a nice day. I'm off the rest of the week so it'll be even more food/drink/being merry!

This has all come wayyyy too quick. Tomorrow I'll be sanding the walls and heading down B&Q for some Polyfilla. I will probably wash the ceiling for prep work as well. That and sanding the woodwork will take most of the day.

Xmas, well head over to parents and have xmas meal. Will get my nds charged up as i'm off to see family in the evening. Discussing how you've managed to get a house and all these benefits out of the council is not my topic of choice :/ I won't be driving, hopefully copious amounts of single malt and a nap in the chair will kill the evening off. Some of you have met moped Nick, Nick is the most tame (and intellectual)

Quite tempted to bugger off for a pint with the sis.

Boxing day, for once the chav scum aren't coming over o/ Wooo!! My mum is really relieved and we can have a nice day for once.

Today - Woke up with a bitch of a hangover and drove to my parents in Birmingham this evening. Been back for two hours and already bored out of my mind so working my way through their beer supply.

Tomorrow - Crawl out of bed as late as I can get away with and then do bugger all. Head to the pub with my best mate (only person I really know in Brum now) in the evening for a few pints.

Christmas day - Start drinking at 10am courtesy of my mums home made Baileys and don't stop till Dr Who comes on

There may be some food and presents in there somewhere

Boxing day - Bored, bored, bored. Will probably end up working just to amuse myself

27th - Supposed to be back in work so I'll be "working" from home. Uncle is coming up to Brum to pick my Gran up so will have beers and a curry in the evening. The only bit of Christmas I'm looking forward to.

28th - Back to Cambridge and work

29th-30th - Smoke, drink and watch TV

31st - heading up to Newcastle for New Year

1st - Wonder why my head hurts

2nd - Return to Cambridge

3rd-4th - Use the remainder of this years holiday to do bugger all

Dymetrie · 24-12-2007, 01:03

Well the stir fry tonight was one of the best I've done for a few months

Change of plan tomorrow...

Due to me thinking I was cooking for 4 tonight (when it was actually only 2) I have lots of chicken left over...

As such then we are no longer having pizza tomorrow evening.

I shall be cooking chicken escolapes (sp?) and chips while me and my sister enjoy 'Honey I shrunk the Kids' and 'Love Actually' (to get into the chrimble mood)...

I am so glad I have a lot of wine in the rack

Davey_Pitch · 24-12-2007, 01:11

Tomorrow - lazy day is planned. We're sick of doing work on the house, so tomorrow will be a sweat pants and t-shirt day, doing nothing but watching films, eating too much, and playing various board/computer games. Beer will likely be involved somewhere.

Christmas Day - nipping around to see my Dad, Brother, Sister and Niece in the morning, before spending a relaxing day with Lynnie and her mum.

Boxing Day - going around with Lynnie and her mum to have food at Lynnie's sister. Not entirely looking forward to this (neither is Lynnie!) but I'm sure it'll be more fun than we think it will be.
