A question i've always been too afraid to ask but what actually is the main difference between Christmas dinner and a bog standard roast? Is it quantity? Stuffing?

Been eyeing up the vege options in the Lidle frozen aisle recently, looks like there's some corkers already. As I'll potentially be having a solo Crimbo this year I'm actually quite excited about having free reign.

Turkey instead of chicken, innit? Pigs in blankets, too.

No yorkshires at christmas, more's the pity.

The amount of booze consumed before, during and after is key.

We've had two Christmas dinners already this year.

This is factually inaccurate in the wooders household

I've met him, and I'm afraid to say that he doesn't seem like a real gravy man.

I hope he going back to the nineties, with roast potato smileys, turkey twizzlers and Christmas granules.

Are you "Mr Christmas" OP, aka Andy Park? I bet you are. Well, good luck; you'll struggle to find any (genuine) interest in your hobby/lifestyle/mission round here mate.


People round here celebrate Bonfire Night on various non-traditional days right through autumn and winter.

Of all the abuse I've had on here, that's definitely some of it.

I have chicken Maryland and chunky chips ready to go in the oven. Close enough!

is he still doing the Christmas every day thing? maybe you could pop round, check how he is getting on, open the curtains, put out the bins, that sort of thing.

Some great pics there.
Here he is (Mr Christmas) picking up a turkey for a Winter Wonderland (Or it might be him in the actual Winter Wonderland, not sure)

I'm very tempted to turn my room into a Winter Wonderland, this year - £3 only to meet Santa in his grotto. (I think I have Santa-type eyes: wise and caring, but a little sad).
