Christmas Eve Traditions

[CPLforever]

Always do my Xmas shopping Xmas eve. Just got back from the Metro Center, just like any normal day there today. Straight in got what I wanted and straight back out in under 1.5 hours. Even had time to buy a new top for when we go out for dinner tomorrow

Yep, but did you actually buy stuff that people actually want???

Snowball?

Love a snowball me, absolutely love them.

Have I just outed myself as an eighty yer old purple rinsed old lady...little do I care.....shove a shot of vodka in the next snowball and I'll be showing my bloomers.

Alistair Sim’s version of Christmas Carol.

I know it virtually by heart. Still gets me every time.

On a related note, it's alarming how many people have started to pronounce it "cha-dish-uns". Keep a listen out.

I’ll continue to pronounce it in the traditional fashion.

What is she getting you? Did you have to buy it?

I'm waiting for the bigger discounts in the sales from Boxing Day onwards to get a new coat.

As posted earlier, I'm dead considerate me.

Merry Xmas Eve everyone, do you have any traditions that you and your family like to do?

Just driven down to stand next to my Dads grave, do it every Sunday before Christmas.
Plenty of other graves, including a close Mate.

Happy Christmas @Hettonlass.
Cracking effort trying to help out your fellow Supporters.

Trying to get my lass to watch that but she’s not keen on the trailer, it’s the perfect christmas film (apart from Elf which is in a league of it’s own)

 

[JAZZMANB]

Good night out as a youngun
Solo tonight at home ,few beers ,music, food ,maybe a film
This is as Christmas as I've got so far this year

Oh by the way you were talking I imagined you went in and bought completely random stuff. Like a packet of felt tip pens for your nana or something. Should have known better.

Got to be more than 30 years now that a group of us have met at noon in Fitzgeralds on Christmas Eve. That's not the tradition, the tradition is getting a coating from the Mrs. when I roll home.
