Yup. Easter eggs will be in the shops soon. :)

While I love the food & drink at Christmas, and time spent with friends and family, I really don't like the rest of it to be honest...Far too commercial for my liking

I'm not at all religious so it has little meaning to me

While I love the food & drink at Christmas, and time spent with friends and family...

And that makes it all worthwhile and something to look forward to, surely? :)

That's certainly the case for me, and negates all the commercial bullshit attached to it. Plus I love decorating the house so that it looks all nice and Christmassy.

We've got lots of lovely vintage decorations (from the 50s/60s), collected over the years, and always buy a real tree (as big as we can fit in), so the lounge does end up looking rather good, and nice and cosy at night in the dark, with nothing but the glow of the tree and wood burner illuminating the room.

I enjoy all that about Christmas, as much as anything else :cool:

[Ninanina]

True enough Marco...

I'd have a tree but Colin just won't allow it.... :doh:

I spend a nice few days staying round Colin's over Christmas which is lovely but a tree is out...:(

[Marco]

Lol - why's that? Is he allergic to them or something? :)

Marco,

[Ninanina]

Lol - why's that? Is he allergic to them or something? :)

Marco,

No he's not allergic but just won't have one.... :doh:

[Marco]

That's a shame... Hey, ho.

Marco.

[Audio Al]

No he's not allergic but just won't have one.... :doh:

Just say its not for you , Its for me ;)

[struth]

Shame on him for stopping you putting a tree up [emoji3]. I'm putting one up this year

[Marco]

Yesh, you like putting baubles down your pants to 'surprise' the girls! :D;)

Marco.

[Audio Al]

Yesh, you like putting baubles down your pants to 'surprise' the girls! :D;)

Marco.

I already have 2 huge baubles , NO room for any more ;)

[walpurgis]

The only thing I'm 'putting up' this year won't be a Christmas tree. :eyebrows:

[Marco]

I already have 2 huge baubles....

Yesh, that's the problem: they never get 'emptied'! :lol:

Marco.

[Audio Al]

Yesh, that's the problem: they never get 'emptied'! :lol:

Marco.

Is that a offer :eyebrows:

[Marco]

:eek: :no:

Sadly you're not my type, dahling - not enough 'fur' :eyebrows:

Marco.

[Audio Al]

Still loyal to the sheep I see ;)

[Marco]

The only thing I'm 'putting up' this year won't be a Christmas tree. :eyebrows:

Santa bringing you some Viagra then, Geoff? :D;)

Marco.

[Marco]

Bessie, she's my baby... I could send her round to empty your 'baubles' for you?

Marco.

[walpurgis]

Santa bringing you some Viagra then, Geoff? :D;)

Marco.

Nah. Still got some of those you kindly gave me Marco. :D

[Marco]

No problem - they were leftovers from Grant :eyebrows:

Marco.

[walpurgis]

Not sure about using them though, could be an embarrassment when one has a more or less permanent semi!

[Marco]

You can blame that one on Bev! :lol:;)
