So happy I have found this thread!

I think we're going to need a few more threads this year, at the rate we are chatting and getting new Christmas loving friends 🌲🌲🎉

I really fancy some sprouts!

mrsdilligaf here there any everywhere I think! College work and kids and horses and medication. I'm back on it now though lol
How are you and Martha?

What are everyone's plans coming up for Rudolph Day?

I feel like a Christmas Virgin what is Rudolph day???

I didnt know either .
It is 25th of each month when you do a little something christmassy or some xmas planning etc
Eg watch a christmas film with mince pie etc
It keeps the christmas feeling alive all year ! X

This months Rudolph Day is also our guinea-pigs (GP6) Gotcha Day.
He'll be 3 years old , we have three piggies ( our two older girls died earlier this year)

There will be in the "70" house

Sat watching home alone on film4 🎄

I cant cope with home alone ! Too violent ha ha .
I am in the mood for something festive though so may dig out snowman and the snowdog for a quick fix !

I'm a huge fan of Christmas Films (yes even the really naff ones on the Christmas ChanneL) I have wasted too many hours of my life watching them/having them on in the background.

Most recent tat I watched was an artist, lived in her sisters basement, a High Flying City Type who had no time to shop hired her as a Christmas Shopper.
His mother ( one of the Dynasty/Falcons Crest type actresses) falls madly for her (not thinking "Ooh weird Gold-Digger" , more "Ooh, you must date my son" ) creepy .

My No1 Must watch every year is "Lost Christmas" , I still get all when the little girl is on the ice ...

I'm going to have to start a new thread soon I think!

That's brilliant, I think I will do a little Xmas shopping on the 25th and have some Xmas songs on all day.
I have always loved Xmas and it was made even more special as My DS was born on Xmas day 🎄

Oy bing how lovely. Did you call him something suitably festive ?

Well not really we called him Dexter (this has prob outed me!) so Christmas is now always referred in our home as Dexmas

I got an absolute bargain in Tesco yesterday. I picked up a Garden Planner similar to the Cath Kidston Christmas Planner.

It was 63p. Sixty three pence!!!!

I bought 2.

They've gone straight in the Christmas Present box.

Thought I'd share this with you...

M enjoying her ice cream!

Ooh, that sounds ace, MrsD. I'll have to go to Tesco tomorrow. 😁

Very cool and very cute MrsD

I'm hoping to get lucky and pick up some of this week's release of Cursed Child tickets for my DDs. Last year's trip to Wicked was a huge success.

To the poster formerly known as Horace yesterday was DD2's birthday celebration meal - I think you recommended the restaurant that we booked (Bem Brasil). Huuuuge success 🍹thank you.

Martha is adorable! Here is baby chips

Here is my baby enjoying a homemade hot cross bun. I think he and baby chips are about the same age if my memory serves :)

Baby chips is now 18 months old 😳

I just ordered books for babychips. For now. And then my little pony top trumps and a mermaid sequin cushion happened to jump into my basket for chipstheelder and chipstheeldest
