Xmas Day on 20:00 - Dec 17 with 1920 views | J2BLUE | Agree but replace the full English with a bacon sandwich. Plenty of stuffing, pickle and crusty bread. Some decent ale. Nibbles. |  |

Prefer Boxing Day food, me. Hit me with the nibbles, cheese & biscuits and cold meats, and plenty of alcohol. Christmas Day though innit, got to have Turkey & all the trimmings. |  |

The late Donald Dewar MP used to spend Christmas in his armchair with some ready meals, a bottle of good malt and a pile of books. |  | |  |
Xmas Day on 20:51 - Dec 17 with 1712 views | Churchman | Very nice. I will have crumpets with plenty of butter accompanied by a glass of skullcrusher. A creation of my own. Skullcrusher is a bottle of mulled wine accompanied by any old fruit you’ve got lurking with half a bottle of decent scotch added. A large glass of it is sufficient to guarantee getting you through the horror of the moron brother in law coming round for lunch. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Stop. When I was 12 my mum she was fed up making Xmas dinner that no-one liked. So, no turkey just what ever you want. Beans on toast with an egg on top followed by ice cream. Best Christmas dinner ever! Same for when I was 13,14,15---------> |  |

I cottoned on that seconds could be Yorkshires with butter, golden syrup and sugar. Yummy. Try keeping that down when you follow it with a Quality St tin, after 8's (B4 8) and a Cadburys chocolate selection. |  |

I have to say as a generally non-fan of Xmas for many years I have often worked Xmas Day in the past. However, there was one year I was at a loose end and The Grapes in Bury were open all day proper with a tinsel-free zone being the draw. It was actually an excellent day out with all the goodwill but none of the expectations and full of, as you say, a lot of people who, for their own reasons, just wanted to avoid a traditional Xmas that year. Nothing wrong with that. |  |

Same here, I always work at Christmas. One year, many years ago though, I got a lock in at a pub off the Holloway Rd in London and I can honestly say, it was the best Christmas day I've had as an adult. |  |
