Hi Everyone.
What are you asking Father Christmas for this year?
I have asked for snow. I have also asked him to let my parents celebrate Christmas and eat turkey and stuffing. It's hard to be a Jew at Christmas

Insist that all your family have a short term conversion! Of course it will mean midnight mass, the choir, a bit the worse for wear, singing excruciating tuneless carols, and being slowly suffocated by the Parish Priest's fascination with burning incense.
Oh go on then, where do I sign up with the Rabbi?

i might ask santa for an exam pass ! i dont even want it til february lol0

I already go to midnight mass with a friend. I am a singer and last year the choir mistress heard me singing and she asked me to join the choir. I had to turn her down :crying: .
It's just not fair.
Mind you us Jews do have Chanukah and we get presents on all eight days of that festival so I suppose I can;t complain really.
I still hope Father Christmas brings me some snow though. Fingers crossed.

awww i hope it snows to - a white christmas.... if it does though i will be wishing I would have placed a bet!! :001_smile:0

Place a bit then. You're bound to get great odds because it never snows.
Well that's my theory anyway.
By the way everyone, here is a song written by a chap called Tom Lehrer which is all about Christmas.
Christmas time is here, by golly,
Disapproval would be folly,
Deck the halls with hunks of holly,
Fill the cup and don't say "when."
Kill the turkeys, ducks and chickens,
Mix the punch, drag out the Dickens,
Even though the prospect sickens,
Brother, here we go again.
On Christmas Day you can't get sore,
Your fellow man you must adore,
There's time to rob him all the more
The other three hundred and sixty-four.
Relations, sparing no expense'll
Send some useless old utensil,
Or a matching pen and pencil.
"Just the thing I need! How nice!"
It doesn't matter how sincere it
Is, nor how heartfelt the spirit,
Sentiment will not endear it,
What's important is the price.
Hark the Herald Tribune sings,
Advertising wondrous things.
God rest ye merry, merchants,
May you make the Yuletide pay.
Angels we have heard on high
Tell us to go out and buy!
So let the raucous sleigh bells jingle,
Hail our dear old friend Kris Kringle,
Driving his reindeer across the sky.
Don't stand underneath when they fly by.0 -

My family are abandoning me a Christmas and ****ing off the Egypt lucky buggers.
Is there anyone living in or around London who is willing to feed me on Boxing Day. I eat anything except liver or brussel sprouts, I wear hoodies and we can discuss the benefits of being MIPs if you really want.
Anyone?

Jump on a train to manchester sod brussels we can go party instead0 -
Manchester is a bit far I am afraid, but thanks for the offer.

I'm asking for 2 new radiators and a plumber to fit them!! My house is cold!!0
-
Won't you need more than just 2 radiators to heat a whole house?:laugh:0
-
The other problem is that the trains don't run on Boxing Day so how could I get there? Ha haaaaa!!:?:0
-
Maybe you are approaching this from the wrong angle Speegs. If your family aren't there have a Xmas party in your house and we can all come down for civilised conversation and fine food.:laugh:0

Vic Please can I have a lift on you turbo sleigh? Plllleeeeeaaaassseeee.:001_smile:0

Hi Sarah
I would have the party in my house, but I am afraid of a FACEBOOK scenario.
How about though, we all meet a the Preston Pub on Preston Road and get rat arsed?

No silly! Preston Road. It is in Wembley, North West London.
If you lean out of my bedroom window at a precarious angle you can see the great white turd that is the new Wembley Stadium. Not that you will be in my bedroom.0 -
poor Rudolph , hes got the full effects of modernisation and depreciation.
he and his team could really look into the possibilities of redundancy pay!
....
have good time all you lot whatever and where-ever you decide or not, to go and do! :001_tt2:0 -
I passed through Preston Road tube station many a time when I lived in the wilds of Hillingdon - often drunk after a night on the town.0

:crying:Hi CJC
Where do you live now? Can I come to your house on Boxing Day? Nobody wants me. :001_unsure:

I think getting to Cornwall for Boxing Day would be even worse than Manchester, speegs and probably a lot more boring when you got here too!0
-
I wonder is Santa's sleigh would be classed as a taxable benefit? I think it should be. What with all those carbon emissions being omitted by Rudolph and his mates.0

A-Vic did you read the song I posted further up this thread?0
