Home alone etc. Im off work over xmas. dinner with inlaws and my folks. Wee boy will be spoiled rotten. Plenty beers food and chat. That's what it's all about pal. Loads of classic Christmas films up on Netflix we'll be working our way through them as a family I'm sure. Proper special when you've got a wee one having their first Christmases too, enjoy these early years. Hope you and yours have a good one 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's the first time my three year old has understood it properly and she's super excited. All we've had its singles and Christmas songs since the first, nights driving round looking for lights and 6am starts for the bleddy advent calendar 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Jonjon79 13,340 Posted December 13, 2018 Report Share Posted December 13, 2018 One of my Grandads died on Christmas day 2005. .......... It wasn't a bad thing though - he was old, he'd had a good life and, he was in pain with cancer. It was kind of a relief when he was finally at rest. I do like Christmas - the presents and excited kids are nice but, I like the family time and all the food and drink. I've booked a couple of weeks off this year so, I can just meander along and not worry about sticking to anyone's schedule. ........ I'm looking forward to cooking on Christmas day. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
