Blackbriar 8,568 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Right then, we've decided what for Xmas dinner, and what were having to drink. So, who's coming round to your house for Xmas dinner ? Big family do, or just the two of you ? Maybe it's your first Xmas without the kids ? 'Praps you're having granny round ? We spend Xmas on our own, the kids are all grown up and spread far and wide now, but we have our best friend round for dinner and a few drinks - he's single and he'd be on his own, otherwise. (Luvvie alert !) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

walshie 2,804 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Just me the wife and son this year. I expect my boy will spend the afternoon visiting his girlfriend(s). Let's hope they all have a full dinner ready for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paulnix 426 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Just us this year, Mrs, 3 kids and my dad who never gets a proper invite from any of his other kids, fed up chasing my arse around catching up work feeding cows etc just to pack kids up and travel an hour to either of my sisters then get back in the dark and have to work again, rather spend it quiet and leave the children enjoy the day as it happens. probably open presents then go out listen to the local band play some carols before dinner, got in-laws coming over on boxing day, big change from a few years ago when our mother was still alive when I cooked for anything between 18-26 but as a family we all seemed to started to do own day at home and pick a different day to get together.

Greyman 25,295 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 My house is a very open one, for many different reasons, and at the moment I,m up to eleven for dinner, but that could still rise to around fifteen, if someone chooses to have Christmas alone good luck to them, but if someone is alone through death, divorce, or other shit in there life, I will make a space for them at my table,I don't even have to know them well, but that to me is what chrimbo is about, I could not give a shit about the latest must have gadget, but I would find it really hard to leave someone out in the cold, on the one day of the year when family and friends should be together, 14 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
