Refined ixion? Us lot?
And have you seen that queue gathered at the door? Word has got round.

Fish and chips in your pyjamas Charleygirl. No judging here, but I prefer mine in newspaper.

Snarf! 🤣

ixion Sat 13-Dec-25 17:32:23

Huge Ackman?
Isn't he Australian?

And there's me thinking this was to be a refined bash🤦‍♀️

Spicy winter vegetable casserole with sweet potato mash
Chocolate tiffin with fruit and nuts.
Gluhwein

A really nice hairbrush for secret Santa

LauraNorderr Sat 13-Dec-25 17:25:54

Ask George to bring Hugh Jackman for me. Only to look at and drool over you understand

Grandmabatty Sat 13-Dec-25 17:19:55

George Clooney. I've asked him and he's said yes. He wants to bring a few pals

Who is Gorgeous George ?
I’ll bring a few bottles of Bailey’s….as it’s on offer most everywhere.

I’ll bring Baileys, cocktails and something savoury.

Secret Santa will be something tastefully rude and funny!

Music will be Christmassy

I will be dressed in utter bling!

ixion Sat 13-Dec-25 17:04:52

Anyone sent Gorgeous George an invite?

Least he could do is send in some Real Coffee for the close of play ☕️

Little tipple for me please. Love slow gin, never tried sloe vodka

I prefer it to the gin version.

Orlin claims he wasn’t there. Says he was busy being one of the three wise men.
Well if you knew him…

Calendargirl Sat 13-Dec-25 16:55:04

My home made sloe vodka.

Being very generous here, as I don’t usually share it.

LauraNorderr Sat 13-Dec-25 16:54:16

Orlin hasn’t told me anything. Better ask Kittylester, she seems to be training as loose woman.

LauraNorderr Sat 13-Dec-25 16:52:39

Crikey Harris 7 inch heels, mind you don’t fall over.

What did Orlin get up to last year then? I must have left early.

No, you were still, there behind the sofa giving the waiter a few tips blush

Harris27 Sat 13-Dec-25 16:50:34

I’ve made a quiche and corned beef pie fresh out of the oven! Wait till I get my dancing shoes on!

ixion Sat 13-Dec-25 16:29:57

We’re going to need a butler or waiters.
Shall I bring these along, they (unlike FGT) do seem to be appropriately attired.

Gosh, Rosie - butlers in the buff ?

They seem to be a popular fixture on this site.

LauraNorderr Sat 13-Dec-25 16:21:02

It would be wonderful if Lady Lemongrove popped in with tales of their latest cruise. 🤞

LauraNorderr Sat 13-Dec-25 16:19:30

Kittylester, I’m shocked. You naughty girl.

Grandmabatty Sat 13-Dec-25 16:10:58

There are a couple of distilleries near me. I'll take a few empty bottles and fill em. Brook you're a wild one! 😅

brook2704 Sat 13-Dec-25 16:01:05

I’ll nip round the back of Pigstrotter Alley to check the paddock is secure, can’t risk Alarma getting out again this year
fgt I’ll see if there’s anyone in at Lemongrove Manor whilst I’m there…
Anyone got the poteen on yet ?
