I know some people will go all out with the North Pole breakfast but wondering if there is a toned down version I can do on a Thursday before work?!

I may end up flinging their advent calendars at them in a rush to make it to school on time!

Well that's going to help a lot! Lovely

Thankyou, it will indeed help a lot :) nothing better than having things to look forward to!

Best not try and have any joyous times in December then lobster in case I feel a bit sad come January. Or exactly the right amount of fun I will be sure to check first in case I have too much. Maybe I'll have a January breakfast who knows!

WTF is a North Pole breakfast?

Elf on the fucking shelf, decorations going up on November the 6th, panic buying on Black Friday, every National Trust/English Heritage place throwing up a load of garish baubles and lasers and putting "Enchanted" at the start of the place name and charging you a small fortune for the pleasure of sliding around in wet leaves to see them. Large corporations falling over themselves to create the most tear jerking advert with the help of yet another shitty "nouvelle vague" version of a perfectly good song.

I used to love the run up to Xmas - now I am fucking sick of it and it's still November!

I used to love Christmas -

Gosh.

This was the straw that broke the camel's back @HauntedPencil!

I'll have a special breakfast on 1st Dec , hopefully made for me, served in my bedroom. Not because it's the start of Xmas festivities but because it's my birthday. 😁

What are you on about

FridayNightIsWineNight · 29/11/2022 20:10

Never even heard of a North Pole breakfast but now I have, I'm going to do it!
So long as a North Pole breakfast involves me nagging at the kids to get downstairs, make some toast spread with either butter, choc spread or marmalade. Possibly followed by a croissant (the cheap ones from lidl) all while I'm shouting at them to quit arguing and convincing them that doing a willy-copter isn't an appropriate thing to do whilst eating toast.

@inigomontoyahwillcox love it 😂

Talk about missing the point completely and deliberately Hmm

HauntedPencil · 29/11/2022 20:12

I've not seen a lot of Christmas stuff yet? Some in the shops, a street along has erected a huge Santa with a dog looking like he's getting frisky with his backside and some trees I really have to peer into houses to see but I could start shouting at them through their letter boxes

I barely go on Instagram I don't like it and I can't operate it properly without alerting people to my nosy bonking

HauntedPencil · 29/11/2022 20:13

That's your forte lobster. Or desperately trying to find a moral argument against a Christmas crumpet

Re ”North Pole breakfast”, we were watching a documentary series a few years ago and one episode featured Inuit people who lived in the far north. They killed a load of puffins in the summer and then put them whole in a seal carcass to ferment. The cold weather stopped them spoiling. In the winter they opened the carcass and ate the puffins without cooking them, beaks and all.

is that a “North Pole breakfast” cos TBH I’m behind on my puffin hunting and my hollowed seal carcass is already full.

But where does the skink come in?

LindorDoubleChoc · 29/11/2022 20:14

Skip it. I'll have my usual cup of tea.

JackandVera · 29/11/2022 20:20

Having never heard of this I googled and got this! Not as easy as a few crumpets - sorry 😂

What do you do for breakfast on 1st Dec
lollipoprainbow · 29/11/2022 20:21

@JackandVera utter madness !

15Machines · 29/11/2022 20:31

That's surely too much sugar for breakfast 😮

HintofVintagePink · 29/11/2022 20:39

Well sorry that’s a bit much. We’re having cinnamon rolls (the ones that come in a tin that you bake) and I thought that was outlandish enough!

Leela2 · 29/11/2022 20:43

😁I wanna skink!

HauntedPencil · 29/11/2022 21:14

That's some random picture from the internet so don't panic everyone

MoggyMittens23 · 29/11/2022 21:16

@JeanMarie Happy Birthday for the 1st!

FallHappy1 · 29/11/2022 21:18

Chocolate from their advent calendar and, if I can get my hands on them, christmas tree crumpets.

gogohmm · 29/11/2022 21:19

???

What do you normally have, that will do.

Craziness, all for Instagram.

We have our advent calendars at the ready here - dd1's is cheese, dd2 & dsd1 have Thornton's, dsd2 has herbal teas, dp has beer and I have gin!

dontlookgottalook · 29/11/2022 21:20

Is this a thing?

illiterato · 29/11/2022 21:24

Won’t have time for breakfast- too busy rushing down to Tesco to see if they’ve reduced the advent calendars yet.

Although I guess I could buy some cranberries and put them in the sausage sandwich and tell them it’s Rudolf. .
