I vote Port, nothing like a nice hot port over the festive period

your vote has been counted, Niamh :)

Thank you :hee:

Has to be snowballs at Christmas; Advocat, lemonade, and a splash of lime juice.

this is what you want after a big Christmas dinner and it goes well with a Cuban cigar

neem i hope Gav will be getting this in his stocking?

:suspect:

Gav hates whiskey. I'm glad you've abandoned the Scottish Whiskey for an Irish one though LT :smug:

I'll be making a big pot of Mulled Wine mmmmm

Scottish Whisky - no e

No but i saw a very good detailed review of this whiskey on YouTube so bought some for Chrimbo day

:hee:

You know us Irish always adding in extra vowels wherever we can :hehe:

Did it Tuesday as only day I am off work all day until next Friday and no way I am going to town on the 21st of December.... And got it in morrisons. Collected stamps all year worth 50 quids and had a more voucher for 24 pounds so spent nothing

A normal food shop will commence the week before Christmas.

I abhor people who stock up on 12 of everything as though there's a famine. :nono:

The shops are closed ONE DAY, and even then a lot of the local convenience stores, especially ones ran by people who don't celebrate Christmas, decide to open on Christmas Day.

I think we get the drinks this weekend then the big shop in the 23rd.

I went into Tesco just there to get the CHristmas Spectator as a gift for myself (which i have already wrapped and put under tree so i wont be tempted to read) and a box of Isla Negra and I swear i could feel a touch of hysteria in the air from shoppers

D:

Hmmmm one for hubby to try.

Turkey chest and pigs in blankets ordered from butcher , i'll do big shop on Sat at M & S, Aldi and Sainsbury . Sainsbury will be free as i will use my whole years nectar points.

Just ordered my £100 shop from Asda deliveries.

Too scared to be in the supermarkets among a lot of people in case I get flu'. :p

Sometime next week probably latest will be at the weekend and will probably go to Tesco

We usually do a big shop from either Morrisons or Sainsbury's and then go to M&S for the fruit and veg and special stuff. Costs a fortune from M&S but it tastes divine.
