Christmas eve Midnight mass
 

So this year is the first time I'm doing Christmas alone. On Christmas eve my mate is coming around for a few bevy's until about 10:30 then I'm going to the church at the top of my street for midnight Mass.

It's the first time I'd have ever been to midnight mass. I plan on filling my hip flask full of whisky and going to sit at the back of the church and getting pissed while I listen and sing along to Christmas carols. The church is only a two minute walk from my house, so it's perfect.

Aww Alf :hug: I will be on here Christmas day and that's for anyone at all who wants a chat.

Enjoy yourselves, however you spend the holiday. :love:

I will have Middle girl LT with me (smallest boy swaps on Christmas day) and we may go as the Kirk is just a walk away

I'll be on here Christmas's day. I'll be getting drunk though Kate.

You're never alone with Tibb (unless you're banned)

What's "The Kirk?"

ill be here on the day bringing my rapier wit and liberal politics to one and all

:love:

The church

Happy days

Aw, you ok having it on your own Alf? There's room at my table if you wanna cross the Pennines :love:

Aw :love:

Aww Annie. Bless you :love:

I'm fine. I'm alone by choice. My mother has asked me to go around to hers but I just fancied doing it alone. She has her husbands (not my dad) family there. And it's not my scene.

I usually just have my brother around and we do it together but he's gone to Thailand for Christmas this year (the dirty dog)

I'll be here doing my Christmas Day Advent Calendar speech and generally popping in and out.

Fancy a lodger?

I've already got my turkey.

Oh, which one?
Megs or harry?

More like Andrew. He's a proper turkey.

Well yeah, but out the 3, which one would you eat.:smug:

Megs

Same

The other two are too skinny.

I laugh and joke but I will be in prestonpans midnight mass with my sister, mother and niece and nephew.

I've always quite wanted to do midnight mass and the hip flask is a great idea, wonder if that will be frowned upon lol

I did Christmas on my own last year thanks to Covid and actually I loved it. A nice bottle of Baileys, the pick of the television, and peace and quiet

Be discreet and nobody will notice.

Jesus will know that I'm just having a drink to celebrate his birthday. He'll know that I'm doing it for him.
