I've done all my Christmas shopping and wrote all my cards. Yay me. X

our recent tradition to do it before my birthday :)

Today the Aldi Christmas food catalogue is out :amazed:

I was in there only the other day and it looked like they were stacking up for festive specials even then.

Got a Kevin the carrot for my daughter this morning, hopefully she doesn't buy him herself

Aldi website crashes as thousands flock for Kevin the Carrot Christmas 2022 toys

You're on the ball and very early Kate .

I haven't even thought about that yet lol .

we're also already making first christmas dinner plans, likely chinese takeaway (first time we are having it since covid pandemic, last time we had chinese takeaways was in 2019)


as for second christmas day, very likely me and my dad our tradition of doing a bit of gourmet

a takeaway??:conf:

I don't think any Take Aways even open here on Christmas day :think:

there are plenty restaurants open on Christmas day, so there must be a proportion that also do take away :laugh:

Not round here sonny Jim :laugh:

My friend gets an Indian takeaway every year for her Christmas dinner as she hates Christmas. The sacrilege - I use the term "friend" loosely for such a Grinch :laugh:

Me and my friend had our Christmas jumpers on this morning

I have a new Christmas jumper making its debut this year :hee:

We are planning to escape to Spain on 27th ...only problem is the decs take them down or leave them up until mid Jan :conf:

Xmas shopping well on the way.
Been watching Xmas films on ch5 for a few weeks now.
Crackers arrived today with some little pressies for hubby.
Looking forward to it this year….hoping to get the chuffing roof sorted as it has rained in on hubbys lovely newly painted walls in the pantry.

To be fair the beer draft pour looks pretty good I would love one!

It's that time of the year where you're waiting on packages to be delivered too and you remember just how awful fastway are and how brilliant DPD is. That feeling when you get a text message saying that Kevin will deliver your replacement package that Fastway lost the day after it was (re)sent out :flutter:
