Sorry Skaffen it wasn't Yogas advice it was OWWs - but Yoga gives excellent advice too.

A very nearly happy Christmas to you all.

I can't quite believe its here. Things are going really well with Sugar Daddy. He really is a lovely and open person (so far, I've known him a whole 10 days now!). We've managed to see each other another couple of times and phone too. I cant quite believe it really. If he really is as genuine as he seems I think I have been really lucky.

Seasons greeting to you all.

Aw Poppy that's a nice thought to take us into Chrimbo

SkaffenAmtiskaw · 24/12/2012 23:50

Banta, you must have misread, I did thank OWW for her advice. My yoga reference is to my date Mr HotYoga, rather than to "our" Yoga. I admit it's confusing! maybe I should call him something else, will have a think...

Anyway thanks all for your kind words. We are trying not to think about it too much but obviously DD is very upset, and also very excited about Christmas. A strange combination!

I am drinking home-made damson vodka with tonic water, yum, very festive.

ike1 · 24/12/2012 23:52

Mmmmm Skaffen that sounds really nice!

ike1 · 24/12/2012 23:53

Knowing me Id down the lot and be dry retching all xmas day..

ike1 · 24/12/2012 23:56

Sorry I just lowered the tone again...that wasnt such a nice thought to take us into Xmas..

JulietteMontague · 25/12/2012 00:00

Skaffen my heart goes out to you and DD. Horrible when someone hurts your DC, that's when you know what you'd do for them.

It occurs to me that if only we were grouped up (grouped I said) on skype or some such, this would be the moment to get on the virtual song and dance floor.

A little bit of this , followed by this

ike1 · 25/12/2012 00:05

I had those playing at the same time then Juliette...interesting...me I am perfecting my Gangham style (Ike gallops off twirling hand into xmas day)

BantaBaby · 25/12/2012 00:06

no skaffen, I replied to your post and said Yoga had said she'd worked out logistics, but it was OWW who had said that. That's what it was all about.

Merry christmas everyone

KirstyWirsty · 25/12/2012 00:08

Merry Christmas to all of you ..

Mumsnet has been my saviour this year and although I have graduated onto this thread and fairly much just stick here I just thought I'd say that I really appreciate all the advice I've had on here

I can't really be arsed with Christmas this year and I'm usually one of those annoying people who love it .. I'm hoping normal service will resume next year

JulietteMontague · 25/12/2012 00:13

Happy Days to you all. Thank you for your wonderful company, wise words and lots and lots of funny bits.

Yogagirl17 · 25/12/2012 00:13

Merry christmas to everyone x

ike1 · 25/12/2012 00:18

OK ...Merry Chrimbo everybody (the word Chrimbo is sooooo annoying) xxxxxxxxxxx

ike1 · 25/12/2012 00:19

Now christmas eve is out of the way...what is everyone doing for New Years Eve???

StrictlyHappythisChristmas · 25/12/2012 00:23

De-lurking to wish all you lovely people a peaceful Christmas!

6 months ago I had no idea I would be spending Christmas with a lovely DP. 5 years since divorce and a lot of OD, but met in RL after all.

DC and I have spent a lovely evening with his DM and his family today, first time she has met my DC so a big step for us!

bant thank you for sharing 'White wine in the sun' I bloody love Tim Minchin!

Merry Christmas all Xmas Smile

SkaffenAmtiskaw · 25/12/2012 00:25

ah yes I see Banta it was me who was confused! too much damson vodka, clearly...

Merry Christmas everyone!

Nomorepain · 25/12/2012 00:34

Merry Christmas everyone!!

MsArsebiscuit · 25/12/2012 03:58

Happy Christmas everyone, I hope we all have a fantastic 2013 to look forward to, which brings us everything we've ever wanted.

( I have been woken up by a text from Emoticon Addict, who is apparently having a great time in Canada. Yeah, thanks for sharing. Appreciate it - go stick your maple syrup-soaked good times up yer arse )

notthegrinch · 25/12/2012 07:00

MORNING Xmas Grin Xmas Grin Xmas Grin

Happy Christmas Xmas Smile

Apologies for being drink and sad last night but this morning I am happy and without a hangover Xmas Smile
.....and my wedding dress is no longer a virgin Wink

Arse Maple syrup soaked good times? Grin

notthegrinch · 25/12/2012 07:01

Arse it looks like I too have gone emoticon crazy this morning, you think it's catching?

jaffacake2 · 25/12/2012 07:07

Happy Christmas to all Xmas Smile
Hope everyone has a great day.
All quiet here at moment,daughters havent woken up yet.
Just looked on pof but none of my favourites on.
Not even little Hobbit !!

48howdidthathappen · 25/12/2012 07:35

Happy christmas one and all Smile I am a light weight crashed before midnight.

My ex sent me a rather sweet drunken text at 1am.

Mr Fuck a rather filthly drunken one about 4am.

I am really looking forward to my non christmas day with my sister. Horses, dog walking, fry up for lunch, then probably a little lot more Pear Cider.

MsArsebiscuit · 25/12/2012 08:11

Good morning and Happy Christmas (again) - ho, ho, ho.

Not, I'm sure that you don't equate excessive emoticon use with demonstrating that you're 'fun and bit crazeeeeee' like Emoticon Addict. He wants to keep in touch with me despite (a) us never meeting and (b) him now being in a relationship because ' we have the same sense of humour ' - he is deluded.
I had another email wittering on from Talent Show, wishing me Merry Christmas. Nowt from Maris Piper, who I imagine is all loved up with some bit of fluff, half his age, half his weight and half his IQ.

I'm away to take the chill off my turkey. I hope you all have a good day and for those of you feeling sad, I hope the day goes quickly and you find some things that make you feel better.

And Snape - wooooh, 5.15 ! Not sure about the evil snowmen but you can't beat a bit of Christmas Time Lord.

SevenSnapespearesSwimming · 25/12/2012 08:37

Happy doctor who day everyone! ;-)

Hope you all have a lovely day, whether embroiled in your family, or on your own. I am off to peel a bazillion sprouts.
