" last-minute pull it together" apparently!

I LOVE the Christmas bleach in the quiz - every home should have some!! Grin

I am a consummate delegator apparently. Probably true but it isn't something I would normall openly admit!

Apparently I am a Military operator!
And I have been planning Christmas since January and if I could would do a full run-through of the day in advance just to make sure every tiny detail had been considered.

Not sure this is me. I did put up the tree yesterday and write my cards if that counts.

Military planner - I hope so. I'm yet to have one at home as we live in a small flat so always go to mums or my partners family but hopefully when it comes to it I'd be organised

Military Planner ( I wish) it certainly does not feel like it at the moment

Apparently im a Military Operator, but to be fair its whatever is easier for me.
I don't get much relaxation time so Xmas day is my only chance

You've been planning your Christmas festivities since January and - if time and money allowed - you'd happily do a full run-through of the day in advance just to make sure every tiny detail had been considered. The upside of all this meticulous planning is that, unlike everyone else, you can actually take it easy on the day itself, knowing everything has been organised to within an inch of its life.

It guessed right, I'm a first time thrower. Good job my other half is a great cook!

hedera45 · 13/12/2015 22:13

Military planner - but I do lose a few battles!

FeelingSmurfy · 13/12/2015 22:16

Conssumate delegator

I found that most of the questions didn't give me a suitable option as answer though so I had to go with nearest one

toodles60 · 13/12/2015 22:57

Consummate delegator apparently. The answers provided weren't as chilled as I am about Christmas though.

Joopy · 14/12/2015 00:09

Consummate delegator! Absolutely not, I plan, shop, cook and clean up. I hate asking for help and would never expected a guest to pitch in.

Behooven · 14/12/2015 00:16

Consummate delegator! Weird as I'm the one that does it all Smile

I would like to know where that Christmas toilet paper came from though.

fazkin · 14/12/2015 00:32

First time thrower - quite right
