Christmas
OK, some idiot had to start the thread. I was winding my wife up last week saying there is only 2 whole months left to Christmas........ 
Booking father - in law to come over to us in Atlanta. Flights are cheap on BA.
Excited that my 18 year old son is coming home for Christmas (He graduated high school this year and has only been gone a month and BOY do I miss him). He's at school in LA (2000 miles away
). Booked his flights last week.
Better start figuring on presents. I never have a clue and it gets harder and harder each year. Idea's anyone please... What do YOU want for Christmas...
And what are you'all upto, planning, or am I pissing you off for mentioning it so soon. (I'll start the Easter Egg thread next week

It means all the cheesy movies can come out "White Christmas, Christmas vacation" and all that crap
I watch Scrooge every Christmas Eve the original film version with Alistair Gibbons in black & white it's brilliant.....I love all that sentimental Bull crap,
My hubby says to me every year " oh my god I'm going to grow a Vagina if I don't get away from this dire rubbish" when I am watching my cheesy flicks
Mince pies, pickled onions, mulled wine........... Brussels sprouts and all that good stuff.........bring it on I love it

Re: Christmas
get everyone to compile a wish list either with sites like amazon that they could send you, or copy/pasting links to things they like into a document and send you that....if they don't, they get nothing
