AIBU To Think You Can't Have Christmas Without...

[Goldenbug]

...A Muppet Christmas Carol?

It's just so Christmassy and fun with such good music. Gives me a warm, snugly, cinnamon scented feeling deep within every time I watch it. On at 6:30 on Channel 4 today. (Christmas Eve)

What does it for you?

Die hard

Elf

The Snowman

Santa Claus the movie
Dominic the donkey
Fairytale of New York
I wanna hippopotamus
Grandma got run over

Eating too much
Tears on Eastenders
Radio 4 announcers wishing you merry Christmas
Feeling reflective

Love Actually

Festival of 9 lessons and carols,candles lit, bottle of fizz popped. Just finished, as is the bottle
Yep, it's gonna be another great Christmas..

Mickey's Christmas Carol.
My Christmas ham
Santa clause the movie at 8pm Christmas eve.

Agreed freudianslurp. And thanks for the heads up for carols at kings. Wouldn't miss it.

Oh, I love 'miracle' so thanks for that slurp
Tomorrows shaping up nicely...

The Holiday. Watched it last night and it never gets old.

The Family Man. The only film I have ever loved that features Nicholas Creepy Cage. I can’t see it on anywhere in the TV guide this year though...panicking!

Mince Pies. They taste of Christmas. Possibly helped by the fact they're not a year round thing.

Holiday Inn - the original "White Christmas" film. I've got to the stage that I'm incapable of wrapping presents in my home until I've watched it (or am watching it at the time).

Love Actually
Santa Claus the Movie
Father Ted

Oh Home Alone!!

Chinese takeaway for dinner.
Dominic the donkey
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas

Feeling of impending doom that I haven’t done everything followed by a glass of wine, followed by me saying “stuff it - it’s only one day, it will be perfect”
Getting kids to bed, fighting sleep myself so I can sort stockings....

And I BLOODY love every stupid minute of it g

Harvey's Bristol Cream sherry. Never drink it at any other time of the year but come the 24th and 25th December, when I visit my parents, I start working my way through the bottle from breakfast onwards. Wouldn't be Christmas without it.

And YY to Carols from Kings. I time my Christmas Eve drive from London to my parents' house in Bath to coincide with it and listen as I drive. One of my favourite solitary traditions.

Church
Friends for dinner on Christmas dinner

bread sauce.

The whole of Christmas lunch is just a way to get to eat bread sauce.

Jingle all the way! Underated

It’s a wonderful life
All drinks with ice/slice/cherry from Xmas Eve onwards
Shortbread with a cuppa in bed in my Xmas mug
Smelly cheese fridge

Never seen the Muppet Christmas Carol. I have seen a trailer for Elf, and quite honestly I'd rather pull my own fingernails out.
