Family Christmas

What will you be doing for Christmas day. Will you have a house full, or will you be going to family for the day? Any suggestions for games. Charades are a bit old hat.

i will be making dinner for 20 friends and playing a board game called Articulate Articulate but it will be on the 23th because Christmas is a work day here

We will be having a very quiet day. I think Son & Daughter-in-law along with the Grandkids will call round. I have asked him to bring one of their greyhounds so Yvonne can stroke it. Velma is very placid but Lucy is a bit on the bouncy side and may be too much for Yvonne.

Nothing like a bit of dog therapy PeterP
"Articulate" sounds interesting PeterI

The 5 second rule
Sounds entertaining

The littler...the better. ..bah humbug. .better things to think about

People have lost the real meaning of Christmas, Its to celebrate the birth of Jesus, Not boozing and over eating and spending loads o money, I'll be planning next year, Maybe in the shed or the
the greenhouse

Mulled wine and mince pies. mmmmmm Will you be going tom?

Nothing for me this year. Nowhere to go, no one to spend time with.

Doesn't really matter though. It's not the first time and it won't be the last.

I've had the worst cough and cold I've ever had in my life all week. Haven't eaten, so my brother is going shopping for me tomorrow to get some food in for me, so I may not be well enough to enjoy Christmas this year, but I hope you all do.

That cough is going round Mollie, I've had it so has my wife and Son, I was ill for a week with it and, Its still in me but, I'm feeling better now, I've even been out biking today for the first time in December so. rest, take paracetamol and tha'l be reet in no time,,

Get BB to come round and rub some Vicks on your chest Tom, I am sure you will fell better afterwards…….



and so will BB!

I'd invite you round to mine mollie, being a good christian, but I don't want to catch whatever it is you've got. Maybe if toms already had it you might get an invite to his?

Tom:

It was going round in our offices last week, but I really didn't expect to catch it. Never felt so bad, but ne' mind eh.

First Mate:

Thanks, but I'm not much in the mood for jollity at the moment. I'm more like The Grinch right now.

I'm sure the ' other posters' who i have on ignore, wish you well as I do. so all i can say is, Keep gooin' wit yed down and you will be fine in a short time, God bless you Mollie,

Any how, back to what are you doing on Christmas day? I wont be getting the twister out this year, that's for sure, you can probably guess why.

First Mate, I'm truly sorry. I honestly didn't mean to hijack your lovely thread. There's nothing worse than that.

Personally, I used to enjoy board games at Christmas as well, Trivial Pursuit in particular. The game Articulate sounds like an interesting game to me and I've never heard of it before.

Mollie.

Extending my sympathies to you.

You may recall, I posted in November about having a cold. First time in decades, so I guess I can't really complain.

But it really was a stinker. I see online that there is a nasty infection hitting people at this time.

So, best wishes, and hopes for a speedy recovery.
