I know it's only 6pm, but the kids are at their dads, DS1 (13) is on the xbox and I'm wrapping g Christmas presents with a baileys. It's salted caramel and there's a good chance I'm going ti finish the bottle as its amazing.

I am in front room with fam and DD and her BF. They are only teens and just started going out (first relationships). We are watching footie. I am a bit shy and nervous so I am on wine. DH is about to go to chippy for tea. It’s so nice to have another young person in the house and to have everyone together in one place. For once I am the only person on phone.

HerRoyalWitchyness · 20/11/2021 19:01

I'm accidentally half a bottle of baileys down already Grin good job I have more!

My child is home for the weekend ( normally at his dads) so I had a lovely drink at 5 whilst making biscuits

Waiting patiently until he goes to bed so I can drink the rest!!!

His dad keeps texting him so assume he's not that fucking busy he couldn't have his son for the weekend

There have been lots of strops all day

It's very tiring

Ah have a lovely time guys! I'm sober tonight as picking up my Mum from a function. But last night I was on the Weston's!

You can wear pyjamas anywhere if you have a long enough coat😁
I'm liking the sound of salted caramel baileys😍

HerRoyalWitchyness · 20/11/2021 19:25

@iamnotanalcoholic70 it's truly amazing.

@OrlandointheWilderness I'm definitely having fun

Had the lovely guy I've been talking to on the phone. He's fab Grin he is out with his work mates. I told him to go enjoy himself but he said he was enjoying talking to me. Grin

@WheelieBinPrincess

I don’t mean ‘sadly I have the baby’ how it sounds! I love the baby, he looks like a slightly grumpy potato. Definitely going to enjoy a wine or two though.

To any Pearl clutchers- NO I DO NOT BREASTFEED OR CO SLEEP

Too late! Pearl clutchers will already be struggling to overcome their speechlessness that anyone drinks anything other than a thimbleful of sherry on Christmas day itself. Have you considered the seven-step programme?

The fact that you are doing this in the presence of a child is a full-on social-services emergency Grin

PS Enjoy ,🥂

@HerRoyalWitchyness Christ, I love a good drink but a bottle of baileys would make me vom. My sister once had a korma washed down with a bottle of baileys. You can image what happened. My mums carpet was never the same again.

Just ordered a bottle with supermarket shop😁

MrsPnut · 20/11/2021 19:36

On my second glass and had a custard choux bun as an accompaniment.
I think salted caramel baileys might make it’s way into my shop for next week.

HerRoyalWitchyness · 20/11/2021 19:37

I am now a bottle of baileys down Grin
@abenbaked oh dear! Poor carpet
@iamnotanalcoholic70 yay!

@HerRoyalWitchyness I think it was her first drinking night since having her baby and she went for it, it wasn't pretty. Think exorcist but the dairy version.

Away to make a gin Grin

InFiveMins · 20/11/2021 19:43

Just poured my first glass whilst watching Strictly - it's honestly my favourite time of the week Blush Had a great day out and about with family and now just enjoying a bit of good telly and a cold glass of wine.

Sparklingbrook · 20/11/2021 19:43

My SIL made me a Baileys once. A pint, in a pint glass, with a straw. Grin

I'm back from B&M. Got Tutti Fruitti cider.

LineRunner · 20/11/2021 19:44

Wine to usualsuspect wherever she may be.

HerRoyalWitchyness · 20/11/2021 19:44

Tutti frutti cider sounds amazing

DC have all dispersed to rooms after we've just finished a bloody lovely takeaway curry. Just waiting for 2yo to go off then I'm opening the wine. It'll only be a couple of glasses but it will be well enjoyed.

Sparklingbrook · 20/11/2021 19:51

I second that, hopefully she's watching her huge bedroom TV. Grin Wine

We need to get the band back together, @Sparklingbrook Grin

@catgirl1976 was in it - she knows how to quaff a Lambrini or two. Her babe will be all grown up now, at primary school and everything.

HerRoyalWitchyness · 20/11/2021 19:56

I'm on my second bottle of baileys. Grin music is on Grin
