You're making two thirds of a banoffee pie? Isn't that just a banoffee pie, or will you be making it in an actual 'two thirds of a circle' shape? Pacman pie |

This is why I'm not one for using a day's holiday for Christmas Eve as it's always a doddle. We were given Christmas Eve as a bonus day of leave, this year. |

Pacman pie I'm going to make the biscuit case and the banoffee filling, then I'll do the vanilla cream topping just before I serve it. |

My little doggie has been poorly since yesterday so I'll probably just spend Christmas cuddling him under a blanket. |

Well, got the family "duty visit" out of the way, so short of dinner at the father-in-laws tomorrow, I'll be cooking our Christmas dinner on Boxing Day, then at a friends party in the evening. The rest of the time is ours, so a stack of DVDs, several bottles of wine and that is about it. Inevitably I'll end up doing Mrs Ps tax return at some point - joys of being self-employed! Oh, and reading a lot of SharePoint manuals. |

My youngest two are showing signs of being under the weather, I'm hoping they are going to be better by the morning as the youngest one is really weepy because of it at the moment. Malc |

What? If you mean you thought it looked like a penis then I think you are well overdue a trip to a doctor. |

Really pleased to hear Mrs Grim... is feeling better, matey. Yay! Hope everyone here has a super-awesome Christmas. Well, still in work but I get off at half three. Then it's a slow train up to Yerkshire, I think I'll be watching some DVD's on it or playing XCOM on the way. Hopefully I'll get back by five past eight, but who knows, right? Christmas Day I'll be spending with mum and dad and then Boxing Day the more extended family. My sister won't be up sadly as she's working, NHS is a cruel mistress. Also, the beloved dog Chester won't be around having died two months ago. It'll feel odd without him and his shake-paw obsession. Miss him. *Sniff* And the day after Boxing Day I'll hopefully meet up with my friends J'Atkinson and Jess before catching the train back down to the 'diff. So just a short break. Tchaw. Wonder what my parents have got me? It's a complete mystery. I confidently predict a Hassleblad system camera with Zeiss 80mm 2.8mm lens. THEY'RE HOW MUCH!? |

Danielle's family are roughly three-fourths of German descent. |

As always (and very inconveniently) Mrs B went down to her family in Ayr this evening and will be there for the next few days due to public transport inadequacies. And for my part I'll be in Fucking Stewarton (it's official name!) for a few hours tomorrow to see my folks. Boxing Day will be our first time back together (after tonight) at which point we'll hit our local (and contender for Best Pub In the World) The Clockwork Beer Company and get joyously drunk as hell. It'll be pretty damn sweet. Please note for anyone that's bothered to Google it: the website is awful, but the pub itself is wonderful. On the upside:
Man, I fucking love everything about Christmas. Who's with me? o/ |

My brother has just told me that he (again) bought a huge lump of Havarti cheese. This means he will be giving me sizable chunk to take home with me tomorrow The last bit he gave me stayed in the freezer for a year and I bought it out last Christmas, tasted great was the most popular cheese I had. |

Quiet one for us. Collecting Chloe at 11am, was supposed to be having her here for lunch and dropping her back off at 3pm, but Lisa has decided she doesn't want to spend Christmas day on her own so only wants me to have her for a couple of hours now so she doesn't even get to stay for dinner. Sam will go around his Dad's after lunch and Darryl is in Afghanistan so it will just be me, Joans, leftovers, alcohol and the telly/x-box. Terrible. |

That was the weirdest christmas ever. We got a good spread of food. Which was nice, but at one point we had a guy feeding a possum shrooms. |
