Gransnet Christmas Party 2019

Baby has dropped down in to my pelvis and I can barely move, on the plus side there's more room for stolen and ice topped mince pies ?
Merry Christmas all. ???

I'll don my kilt and do a Highland Fling.

Merry Christmas everyone

Tree up, hen picture hung (don’t ask), lights twinkling everywhere and Christmas music plinky plonking from various decorations activated by enthusiastic GC.
Make up beds, finish vacuuming, oh and wrap the last few presents. Feeling festive!???

We got the tree up yesterday, a bit of a job, as the stand broke and DH had to make a new one! It's decorated, the cat has had his first Christmas snooze behind it, and is currently driving me mad.

Our son is coming this evening and the cat cannot wait to see him, so is making a blinking pest of himself wandering around meowing!

We've got to have this year's Christmas number one, " I Love Sausage Rolls" and last year's, "We built this city on sausage rolls." Both festive and catchy!

I love solstice bells by Jethro tull and stop the cavalry by jonah lewie x

Oooohh, wondered when the invite was coming! Please can I do the music and dancing again. I think I have provided a successful playlist in past years! Sixties, northern soul, cheesy pop finishing off with a good old sing song of carols. Also love Greg Lake one!. See you all there

I love I believe in Christmas too and love trifle, lovebeigecardigan. Please save a big plateful for me as other person here doesn't eat it and individual ones are not good.

we like fairy tale of new york

Here are some decorations you might like:

Well dragonfly, Pooh and Piglet are taking us all to the pub first ... (see her earlier thread *To lighten the mood a bit ...*)

But we’ll come on after that .... can we have lots of virtual crisps, nuts and canapés please ... as they are obviously calorie free. Also many glasses of (virtual) fizz for me please ... as it is obviously hang-over free.

Last Christmas, Mary's Boy Child (Johnny Mathis X

The kettle's always on in Soop's kitchen but in here it's champagne central!

Please add Walking in the air from the Snowman sung by Aled Jones. It always reminds me of Christmas. Thanks.

I could do with cheering up - thanks gransnet.
We're going away to distant daughter's for a week over Christmas so we haven't put up a tree. Still not bought all Christmas presents and annoyingly a couple of birthday presents. DH does nothing except the occasional unhelpful suggestion. Came home 5 pm yesterday after looking for gifts in a very crowded town. DH not even started evening meal let alone put the kettle on. I've been sulking ever since. I know it's childish but I have to start again today doing everything. No, I'm not going to ask.

Sorry, rant over. Thank goodness for gransnet!

We have finally got decorations sorted ,wrapping pressies today ?We had two very excited GC yesterday singing Christmas songs ??

"It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas", two youngest grandchildren helped put up and decorate the tree. We made some cards, drank hot chocolate and watched the Grinch.
Perfect? mayhem .

We have snow today very festive, and Bleedin cold !

I quite like the Christmas song by Leona Lewis,called One mor e sleep??

Well, I'm not sure i'll look quite that good in my Christmas jumper.
