So where, exactly, will you all be on Xmas Day ???????

Postby moonbeam » Dec 16th, '09, 21:57



I'm only asking 'cos I wanna rub it in, as me and the missus are off to Teneriffe this Sat for 10 days, so my answer would be,
"On Xmas Day, I'll be on the beach :lol: ".

...... and before you ask, no I'm not flying with British Airways :shock: .

I'll be back just in time for the New Year (29th) but I'm prob gonna need more than a day or two to recover - I've never been on an all-inclusive before ..... all that free food and beer. I must resist, I must resist ..... oh what the hell :? .

QUESTION:
If we can sue McDonalds for making us fat and cigarette companies for giving us cancer; why can't we sue Smirnoff for all the ugly gits we've sh*gged ??

At 7am, fast asleep on the couch at Mum's house in Carmarthenshire.
At 7:27am, crawling up the stairs to set off the Sonic Grenades for Mum (as in to wake the rest of the house up)

The rest of the day, I'll be either playing with cards, annoying on the Nintendo Popular Console Of Choice, or visiting World of Warcraft and EvE-Online...

We'll be at my sister's with my Mum, my Bro in law's Mum and brother, and the Mum in law's sister and hubby. Can you believe we're having beef as well as turkey? Yummy stuff! Lots of laughs for those precious three hours before we all fall asleep then wake with screaming hangovers.

I shall be with those I love most - my friends and family. I will eat goose (since I am a traditonalist and have no love for hormone injected turkey). Then I shall be off with all to the circus and live a day of wonder. It's how I choose to live my life and I am happy! Best wishes and much love to you all. Count Kryzal x

Round me mum and dads with my little girl, one of my sisters and my niece. No doubt far too much food, turkey, beef and pork i expect with pigs in blankets as well I'm guessing.

Don't know what I'll be doing for tea as my mum says no buffet this year as it's only a small turn out? I'm sure I'll find something to do or someone to annoy though.

If I even considered this my wife would castrate me.

You are either single or your other half has a twinked level 80 gnome mage!

I shall be at my in-laws which for me is a good thing as they are great. As stated elsewhere I feel particularly Christmassy this year so am hoping it's a good one!

Christmas Day is also the start of 10 consecutive days off work for the price of 3 annual leave days - result.

Unfortunately I must return on Jan 4th, however on the 7th it's down to the airport ready to go on holiday until the end of January.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh......... bliss!

Quality - I was waiting for a post like this lol :roll: .

Disclaimer: just beware if you do try my house - there'll be 2 Yorkies to contend with and I'll not be held accountable for their actions :shock: .
