Light weights.. Now Christmas Day, midnight mass was superb this year..
What different from the last two thousand and twelve editions? Don't tell me the Church has changed Midnight Mass and bought it up to date, apparently in todays books he's not a carpenter from Nazareth but a Bowl turner from Nuneaton. Ohh Err, watch those new forum members Jim!

Hows Santa going to get into your central heating system if you're sitting there being cranky over a PC half way through the night? Only reason you're up is so that you can trough Vi's mince pies no doubt.

Couldn't sleep and thought I better get up and get my hands on the Christmas Lunch and start stuffing the turkey before King Alfred (Mother in Law) turns to and wrecks it.
I could have slept but the kids had other ideas, an hour & a half later & they still show no signs of fading, wish I could say the same for me, time for another coffee.:monkon:

Don'r forget Doug, 'Tis the season to be jolly tral la la tral la bloody la.
Luckily my boys are suffering from teenager fatigue, mornings dont exist, midday is breakfast time if we're lucky,
Seven O bloody clock, the parsnips, potatoes are parboiled, the giblets are just going in to be roasted off, the brussells are trimmed and awaiting the boiling process although I never understand why we go through the middle man exercise, we should just buy the things as a ritual, take them straight out of the door of sainsburys and put them in their bin!
Cant even escape into the shed as I have the worst hacking cough and cold ever and the first thought of a bit of sand paper will finish me off.
I will never understand what made the first person in history put one of those things in their mouth. If you drive past a field of them growing you are instantly reminded of a gym bag full of sweaty clothes that has been abandoned in your locker for six months or so. What possessed 'Patient zero' to think "I'm sure they taste better than they smell"?????
Have a great Christmas everyone ...
