    I don't mind too much, but you're right. The kids don't give a shit about the TV on Christmas day. They've not watched a second of it and I imagine that's the norm.

    Alot of it will be watched over the coming week though, to be fair. Just not "The Snowman" which just needs to fuck off now. It was already tired and boring when I was a kid ffs.

    I'm very full, but I need to finish the trifle I made off before the cream takes a turn, so I'll have to struggle through that at some point.

    It's absolutely buzzing on the streets outside which is pretty bizarre when you compare it to the UK. People walking up and down the streets, bars, restaurants and shops open, very strange (currently in Italy).

    I never used to like
    Ferrero Rocher. They are top tier now for me. All year around.

    After Eights. Xmas Pudding. Etc. All of that traditional festive food. 99% of it can go down the toilet

    Yeah, I'm not a fan of Christmas Pudding, Christmas Cake or Mince Pies to be honest. I'm convinced Victorian England ran purely on raisins and marzipan.

    It has also been brought to my attention that those little festive paper hats you get from the xmas cracker. They have never been big enough to fit on my head. Because they made for the kids.

    Hopefully that works.

    Bear in mind my plate wasn't full at the time. It was some sort of nut roast Wellington, which is what I've come to expect.

    Heartbreaking stuff. What was the (I presume) vegan pig in a blanket made from?

    I actually don't know what it was, I'll find out. It was all tasty, just minus the meat of course.

    My sister's a life long veggie and both she and her husband have been vegan for probably the last 10-15 years, so it's nothing out of the ordinary when we eat with them. Though it's the first Christmas I can remember having together probably since childhood.

    I like After Eights but they're just that little bit too thin to have just one, so about seventeen or so does the trick

    They must have, you'd just use vegetable stock as the base, Shirley

    I sat through Chicken Run 2 earlier. I told them it would be shit, as everything on Netflix has gone through 11 layers of corporate watering down and tailoring for thick Americans before it's allowed on there. Sure enough it was shit, and everyone was surprised because they remembered the first one, in 2000, being good. Why am I not listened to?

    Going to my Mum's today and staying over, was hoping for a chilled affair but my mug step brother in his 50s has no mates so seems to think it's going to be some kind of party, rather than coming for an hour and leaving like a normal person. I'm going to be the most miserable cunt in the county and teetotal for a day if that's what it takes to get it through to him that he needs to fuck off at an acceptable time.

    I honestly don't know why we only eat it at Christmas. It's not exactly hard to knock up. Or, atleast, the effort to satisfaction ratio seems worth it to me.

    An efficient household would do it the day after any and every roast dinner, or frankly you could do it any time you have sausage and mash or innumberable other British classics. Make a little bit more the first time around and that's two days of meals sorted.

    I can only dream of belonging to such a household.

    We've another full dinner tomorrow now, I can't bear the thoughts at this stage. Bring back the good old days of rotating the main day around each year instead of this shite or everyone needing their day in the same year.

    How long did it take? Potential for feeling fully disabled tomorrow if we're talking 12 hours plus walking.
