To think mumsnet will shrivel up and die

[Hobnobswantshernameback]

Without all the usual Christmas threads
I mean....what will people find to moan about

@Hobnobswantshernameback

And if you're pissed does that count as essential shopping??? Well does it??? You could have frozen some grapes in 2004 and now you could suck on them instead Your selfish wine shopping will have killed at least half a granny and I'm shaking i tell you shaking

Fools. They should have grown their own hops or stockpiled homebrew kits. Or distilled their own gin in keeping with proper MN etiquette.

I never venture near the Christmas board
And haven't dared look at the Covid board

@motorcyclenumptiness

There's always parking

Yup.

Wise choice. Very, very wise choice.

@midsomermurderess

Endless threads asking 'should I report my neighbours' and berating people for having a little sit down on a bench will be a pleasing diversion for many.

This thread has made me today

@SDTGisAnEvilWolefGenius

I’m sure we could resurrect some zombie threads from last Christmas - which will be double delight because people will be able to moan about Christmas and the zombie thread resurrection.

Omg, that is genius!!!!

@Sparklingbrook

Here's a good one from 2012 www.mumsnet.com/Talk/am_i_being_unreasonable/1643322-To-think-a-baileys-dessert-from-iceland-isnt-suitable-for-xmas-day-and-a-bit-cheeky-actually

Cries of-'A Baileys dessert isn't an essential purchase' etc...

That's a great thread, and (actually) I remember it from first time round, but I think that one needs to wait until nearer Christmas to resurrect. What's needed right now is a zombie thread about shopping

I like your style Sparkling

Sorry that was to Flouncer

I am going to start a rumour that Nicola Sturgeon is going to ban alcohol sales before New Year to reduce the risk of illegal parties in Scotland her hee

@Hobnobswantshernameback

Sorry that was to Flouncer

You don't like MY style then?

Soz Sparkling
Love all of you not just your style

Father Christmas is going to be a real super spreader isn't he? Going around everyone's house touching everything and using their glasses and plates. he's an essential worker apparently, but I think he should be furloughed to be on the safe side.

@Hobnobswantshernameback

Soz Sparkling Love all of you not just your style

Aww thanks.

Just imagine how many households Santa will have been in
The dementors will have the vapours

There will actually be parents leaving out a carrot, a mince pie, a beer or milk and some anti bacterial hand gel for sure.

Brexit?

@Sparklingbrook i adore your style.

If I was better at searching, I'd be looking for a zombie thread to resurrect

Oh those plates people buy off Facebook tat pages with a space for Rudolph's carrot and Santa's mince pie drawn on will have to have a space for the wipes to wipe the presents down and the bottle of hand sanitizer

For several days before hand taped off.

(TBF I quite like the hand santiser idea for shits and giggles).

They'll be one about the way their dc school is proposing they do a nativity.

Involving windows and time slots (which will be really inconvenient) so they can watch

Good grief.

Omg, I LOVE those Christmas decs!!! I thought it said 202, took me ages to realise the second zero was loo roll.

How can I get some? I want to give them as presents.
Do you know where they're for sale, Sparkling?
