Martinos is dog shit like.

I've heard the stadium is canny. I may be doing the same as normally go round my mam's but she'll be in midst of her chemo so may take her somwhere instead.
I'm not ruining her Christmas by cooking.

 

[Venkman]

Nah, I like being a big fat git too much and gorging myself on the ridiculous amount of roasties and pigs in blankets provided by my mam.

 

[AndrewP]

True. Couple of me mates used to work at the Ramside Christmas day. Must be shit like.

One of my mates used to work Christmas every year. If it was up to me I'd ban it.

Ramside do a cracking Christmas Day meal. It’s pricey mind. I seem to recall one year all drinks being included n’arl but I think now you just get a half a btl of wine or a btl per head.

As for working Christmas Day, it’s not that bad to be honest. Was usually a good atmosphere and you could get away with murder just because you’d turned in.

Jim's Ma's apparently

Decent spread?

 

[pele]

Anyone recommend anywhere really nice with a good atmosphere?

You won't get a good Christmas atmosphere during the last week of September. Can you not leave it until later in the year? Then, perhaps book lunch in the Half Moon Hotel in the Bigg Market, Newcastle. You can't beat the atmosphere in there.

Never been but the original "all you can eat spread" I heard!

Sounds like a cracking porno that.

Sinking between 4 and 8 cans whilst cooking the Christmas dinner is one of life's pleasures.

A bit of a left field suggestion.

We take turns to cook Christmas dinner with the in-laws.

When it’s our turn we invite them over on Christmas Eve at 4ish and her parents and the brother in law’s family go home at about 8 to prepare for Santa Claus.

It removes the hassle of any pressure of cooking on Christmas Day. I do a fry up at 11ish after the kids have opened their pressies.

Picked up a leaflet in the Hilton yesterday. 70 quid per person, even veggies!

Why not let her cook then and it might take her mind off it and won't have to pretend to like the swill you serve up

Shut years ago.

Is due to shut years ago.

I'd expect a BJ off Mary the Mag for that.

Shut years ago.

Was there this afternoon at the Metrocentre man, no parking spaces.

Went there for mothers day. Was dreadful.

 

[Medulla]

Did it a few years back at Bowburn Hall, not sure how much but as a guide they want £73 a head this year.

Saved me the cooking but it was like eating Christmas dinner in a nursing home. f***ing awful.
