🎅Will you join me in a Christmas name change, just for fun? 🎄

[BlackBeltInPresentWrapping]

Every year I try to hold back the tide of tinsel until December, but I'm happy to admit defeat on the 1st. [santa]

I used to be BlackBeltInChildWrangling - will you join me in a Christmas name change, just for fun? [santa]

Previously BadgerWithRice

@SickRose you could change to SickPoinsettia ? Classic Christmas flower

Perfect!

Place marking....

Woohooo got my festive name back! :)

Welcome, Ladytinselmuff

I'm sorry, tinseltitsbumfannythelot, but only one free gift per person is allowed. You did get a free Seasonal Inspection, Style and Environmental Impact Package by our Resident Guru Sassy, after all and how could anyone ever forget that experience, even if they really really really wanted to

Welcome SickPoinsettia and BadgerWithSprouts

And welcome too to Santasballsack - in the absence of MrsF, her festive clipboard and tapping pencil, who were you before?!

Good to see you've finally managed to join us, MistletoeMagnet, successfully throwing off your former MozzieMagnet, and resisting that inner 'what no prize?!' Grinch.

Like a moth to a flame, or a mozzie to a magnet, it sounds like you've been attracted by the free gift.

And you can have a free gift, TinselBee, for entering into the spirit by helping SickPoinsettia find a name.

Now finally, mathanxiety - it's no use just place marking, we're all awaiting your Christmas name change grand reveal.

Hurry, before the free gifts run out not that that's likely, with our SBc

The MNer formerly known as mathanxiety...

Yes, why not. Formerly ToeCleavage.

Welcome, Toe!

Welcome back, math - well, I did ask! Do you suffer from maths anxiety in the car park too, or is it just Christmas you fear in.that environment? We must be told.

By the way, I like what you've done there with Mistle, Toe. You'll fit in just fine here.

Hmmm...although we don't want too much Leavage on display, especially if there's a lot of stalk on show of course

Morning!
The deer are a bit restless. Getting a bit excited.@BB , all those extras thrown in !
I am a busy Baby.
What do you call a blind deer?
No idea!
What do you call a deer with no legs?
Still no idea .
They’re crackers !

It's the schreckliches Fahren auf dem Parkplatz that gives me the angst BlackBeltInPresentWrapping*.

Plus the realisation that I have left my list at home in the coat I decided not to wear after all. Then upon emerging from the shop with only a few of the things I wanted to buy, trying to remember where I parked the old jalopy.

Then of course the future credit card bill angst.

How I hate Christmas shopping.
'Wie ich hasse Weihnachtseinkäufe'*

*All translations thanks to google

Ich verstehe.

Is there any particular reason for the sudden German, math? Is it overload from Christmas shopping and car park rage at the bad drivers, have you had a bump to the head because of some lametta on the coffee table, or just too much Gluhwein at a Christmas market? I think the Germans do Christmas very well, so I understand the attraction.

All that's left for me to do, is wish you Frohe Weihnachten und ein frohe neues jahr.

(Mit Entschuldigungen bei deutschen Mumsnetters )

You can't be too busy saving deer, tasting brandy, writing puns, and hogging the mistletoe, for your adoring fans, SBc, surely?

You've got a disorderly queue waiting expectantly for their free gifts, so step away from the coffee table and pucker up.

Season's Greetings to all I've never changed my name for Chrimbo before but what a splendiferous idea!

Our household currently engaged in battle over whether or not the old decorations go up this year. Two of us say NAY (they are well past their prime and we need new ones) and one, the Crusty Grumpy Old Sod, says YAY and will not back down. Any sharp-horned reindeer available for hire?

Seasonal Greetings to you also and welcome, merry

Our Style Guru Sassy will be along soon whether you want her to or not, just you try stopping her to inspect your tinsel thoroughly, and provide a bossing about mediation service between you and your Grinch CGOS.

If the Grinch fails to do as they're told the mediation isn't successful, we can send our SBc round as she's quite handy in her antler hat, if that's any use. She will be keen to deliver your free gift at the same time if you want to pretend to be out.

To qualify for this once in a lifetime hindrance offer, you need to first comply with MrsF's strict requirement to know who you were before you name changed?
