having given up on Boris' announcements, I wondered if anyone else fancies making one. 5pm timing optional but you can leave everyone waiting for hours first if you prefer.

My sprouts are on the hob.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 21/12/2021 16:52

The wine is open in the fridge! The chocolate stash is safe from the children.

MrsTimRiggins · 21/12/2021 16:53

I’m hungry as fuck. My six week old is looking adorable sleeping on me.
The two do not mesh well together as I am, alas, trapped.

Breaking news.... I've just been to the gym for the first time in weeks AND blow dried my hair nicely afterwards!

I have parboiled some carrots and assembled them on a tray ready for freezing. I shall now move on to the aubergines for tea. Next vegetable please.

I've been in bed since 12pm, very snug and with ice cream.

TiddleTaddleTat · 21/12/2021 16:56

A double batch of mince pies is underway!
I am thinking about opening the baileys and/ or finishing off the bottle of red!

I'm trying to eat a pizza but my cat is clawing at it and trying to drag it off the plate

Abraxan · 21/12/2021 17:00

I have both cheese and wine in the fridge, along with a nice red onion chutney.

Those pictures showing certain people 'at work' made me really want cheese and wine!

OhPeeQueue · 21/12/2021 17:02

🎉I’M OFFICIALLY ON ANNUAL LEAVE FROM NOW UNTIL 6TH JANUARY. 🎉

CaptainCallisto · 21/12/2021 17:02

I forgot to buy bread in the supermarket, and will be forced to buy chocolate and wine as going to the village shop for one item would just be rude. Next slide please.

Peanut82 · 21/12/2021 17:02

DP is doing the late shift at work and wants a lift home, I want a wine instead 😂

rrhuth · 21/12/2021 17:04

There has been a concerning outbreak of hiccups in the local area, we are watching the data carefully. Next slide please.

QuiltedHippo · 21/12/2021 17:04

I've got some really nice ribbon for present wrapping. Next slide please

TheDrsDocMartens · 21/12/2021 17:05

I got free mince pies today from Tesco as there was so many substitutes. All got upgraded so win win for me!

Next slide please…

OliveTree75 · 21/12/2021 17:07

I hate wrapping.

Alonelonelylonersbadidea · 21/12/2021 17:07

The bath running right now is approaching the right temperature but we're not absolutely sure of what the next five minutes will bring. I advise caution.

Next slide please.

Breaking news: you can’t escape it. I’m miserable as fuck. DH and I are teachers. Primary DC. Testers positive yesterday and kids are very poorly.
