The Christmas Party is at my place this year and I am starting to think of how many guests and what they should bring. It's always a bring a plate affair.

I am the same - I buy stuff all year and squirrel it away ready for the big day.

People finish up getting two or three (or more) gifts because I forget I have bought stuff.

I have usually started thinking about it by now, but this year we have a wedding to get through first. And for the first time in many years we wont all be at my house so I don't have as much to organise this year.

No reason for that penguin, I just like it.

lurker17260 — Tue, 20 Aug 2013 06:36:38 GMT

Because, mrgrizz, all that food and the decorations and the presents and the cards and the extra beds and the christmas tree and the drinks and the whatever else don't all just happen by magic you know

Yep. Had to. The dog kennel
sent an email saying that they only had a few spots left, so we booked Monty in and then realised that Sydney accommodation had to be booked and just as we'll, they only had a few spots left.

Yes! I've been making lots of decorations (thank you Pepe) for weeks and the planning is well prepared.

I love the Christmas holidays.

I love Christmas. probably because I come from a very big family - I'm one of ten - and Christmasses were a magical time when I was a kid. My own kids have carried on the tadition and we always have big family get togethers. I'm off to Queensland this year to get some cuddles from a very new little great grandson, but I think DD is planning a big family day over here on New Years Day after I get back.
