Jesus was a real bloke, so that must be a right crank effort.

He might have been, but Mohammed definitely was. Convert her.
Had my first mince pie. #mincer
wtf is a wine gum
It's a dental disease associated with alcoholics.
There was a woman offering samples of chopped up mince pies in Asda earlier, and then this old Chinese woman just bowled up and took one of the unchopped whole ones. The Asda woman tried taking it back and going 'No, those are mine', like she was telling a child off, but she just went in again like at Imjin River and got it the third time.
In fairness you basically just described most Candy right there (that isn't chocolate, anyway).
Nothing is as bad as a wine gum. The texture is vile too.
As usual, Giggles is correct.
I always preferred fruit pastels.
Agreed. I like the soft fruity bullshit sweets but the hard chewy ones are bollocks.
My favorite British thing (apart from the electronic music) is probably all those Cadbury chocolates that defy the laws of sound when you consume them.
I’m pretty sure everyone prefers fruit pastilles over wine gums, hence it really sticking with me when my colleague said otherwise.
I'm a twit
Wine gums are the business. You lot are all trolling.
Wine gums sticks your mouth together and then causes aids.
I'm pretty packed now until Christmas. Playing some RAF team in the AFA CUP today which is RAF Halton. Absolute mission. Next weekend to the Sportsman in Whistable then my mates wedding on the 23rd (what sort of date is that) in Manc. Then off for three weeks to Argentina 😎
I've everything bought now apart from my Da. Just waiting on it all to arrive but it's all going to the office so I've a deadline of the 21st or I may go up on the 22nd and 24th and wait there for the couriers and post.
Our family has made a dramatic change this year in that instead of buying a present for everyone, you buy a bigger present but for one person. Absolute godsend for me as I don't really care about receiving presents and buying them is an absolute pain in the arse. And more time for drinking on the day, of course.
Hopefully they all pick you.

Fruit gums are better than wine gums.
I honestly don’t mind wine gums, it’s just that there are much better options. Sports Mix are pretty good.

Just finished scooping at the Christmas party.
Left the boss downstairs rising murder. Fucking pieces.
Just got the breakfast and ready for home
Dealz (Poundland) have bloody gone and put a Santa voice on their self service checkouts.
Tesco did that a few years ago and it disappeared in days, presumably because of threat of world war. Didn't stop South West Trains changing their departure boards so that the stations near me were shown with Christmas puns - so Woking became 'Wo Three Kings', Clapham Junction became 'Clapham Jingle Bells', Chertsey 'Chertsleigh' and so on. On balance I think that was when the UK bottomed out.
Festive.
Is he at the vet?
He was. They said they are taking pictures of all the dogs for their Christmas tree and he's going on the top.
They say that to all the girls.
Anyway, took our daughter to see Father Christmas today and got mugged off by some spotty oik dressed as an elf for not singing along with the magic elf song. Little cunt.
I haven't bought presents for 3 years now, and it's amazing. I only have to worry about my wife, which I sorted months ago.
Since we started doing the kris kringle thing in work it's so much handier.
I'm struggling for ideas this year. I think I might try and push for what Jimmy's family are doing. I normally put in effort to get presents and half the people just give money/vouchers anyway so don't know why I'm even trying. My cousin was a bellend this year and got me 'joke' presents for my birthday after I got him a good hoodie for his, so I might as well just burn £20 for him. If anybody is interested it was this and this.
Just remembered we’ve done a Secret Santa for siblings & partners and I drew my brother in law, who has no real personality. Scanning amazon for anything halfway decent and in budget. Reckon it’ll be chocolate, as he’s into cars and I’ve no clue there.
Wife has said we’re doing a family stocking too, which was news to me.
He asked earlier if we were bothering with presents as he's "not too fussed tbh this year," so there'll be no revenge attack, which is probably for the best as I'd no doubt be left seething after getting more shit making it 2-1 to him, then I'd kick off a bit and get the usual "ALEXANDER!!!!!" as if I'm in the wrong. You know what makes things worse? A month or so before my birthday he won about £5k in some pub game. I guarantee a penny extra won't have been spent on anyone else.
Just landed in to work and there's a banoffee, tub of Quality Street, and two boxes of biscuits all sitting open. Thankfully I'm heading for Cork shortly or I'd have diabetes by ten o'clock.
I'm WFH today as feel like shite (as I was yesterday)
On balance this is probably what's saving me from an early grave.
Lol at some teenagers/russian spies getting Gatwick shut down.
Broke up at lunch time today. What a fucking relief.
Finished until January 7th! Did well for presents too
How we going lads?
Off till Thursday being the madman I am
Off to the local pub tomorrow for a roast
Our Christmas Eve feast is going to be a lot quieter this year. A few have pulled out and said they'll come on Christmas day instead.
Oh and we're doing this for Christmas day pudding:

Looks fucking amazing.
Jamie Oliver is scum.
RIP in pieces turkey twizzlers.
We're doing steaks again.
I had it in my head Christmas was today so here I am rocking up to work on Christmas Eve in yesterday’s clothes
