The Christmas 2013 thread
It's that time of year again! The Christmas decorations are up at my local shopping mall and foods have been for sale for more than a month already. Time to get with the mood!

All christmas means to me now is getting majorly ****ed up and having a seasonal excuse. I've got no excuse at thje moment other than being an alcaholic

You don't get to talk about the solstice celebrations till after Bonfire Night at the earliest.

Re: The Christmas 2013 thread
To me it means having a two week break from work and spending much of it with my family and friends. The hard stuff is shopping for presents in the run up - especially here in Australia where there just isn't the variety of online stores selling goods at competitive prices. But my kids are virtually adults now so it's not really a big deal these days...

Grandson? I thought you were only 25 y/onor something like that! Or are you literally an old sparky?
