West End Weekends: Two Weeks to Crimbo! — Page 4

Weez: Of course not, that's why they're anonymous.

And when traveling abroad, all sense of logic escapes the minds of parents.

I may actually get to go abroad next year...first holiday in years! Tis my uncle's 70th next winter and he lives in Sydney, parents are planning to be out in Oz for Xmas and said they will pay my plane fare to join them (and we have lots of relatives there to stay with). The heat may just about kill me though!

What a lovely welcome Sam! You'll be fine! Let's us now how it goes =)

i won't have time to miss it, what with 2 other units to complete in 4months!! lol agghh this week is gonna be all go go go! hows everyone's weekend been?

Scripps makes me chuckle :)

Awh i wish i had pyjamas! i haven't had a pair since i was like 10, haha what a joke. Im just reading through my script like there's no tomorrow!

so it's 10days til Christmas, whats everyone got planned for the big day?

Drink lots and eat cheese

Oh, to go to a croft in the north of Scotland and forget about the whole thing.

I should so be writing Christmas cards now.

ok so Christmas is such a big deal in my house (in case you hadn't guessed. Here's how the day pans out:

7pm: we start to get up grab our stockings with the lil presents and go into mum and dads room. open our presents together. (bearing in my my two sisters are 10 and 19, younger sis doesn't believe any more, but its tradition!)
8pm: we all have shower's etc, dad starts cooking breakfast.
drinking strarts now, with bucks fizz at breakfast.
9pm: we start on all the tree presents, the bigger ones that aren't from "santa" :P, whilst blaring out some christmas tunes

12pm: the nan and grandad comeover, swap gifts, dads doing last minute christmas lunch bits.
1pm: we all sit down to dinner, do crackers, drink lotsof wine etc.
4pm: after much drinking and slumping out, doing the whole family thing, start to put some picky/buffet bits together, put them on the table. just eat and drink away.
by 9pm: everyones colapsed, nan and grandad gone. catch up on the days tele, whilst being quite drunk

i LOVE christmas!!

I get presents fro family, close friends and then secret santa at work. i spend quite a lot, but hey its christmas. my cards were done by the first weekend of december :P

can you actually even get chinese takeaway on christmas day?!

here's a present for you Scripps
tis the gift of time, so you enjoy christmas properly

"here's a present for you Scripps"

Thank you Sam. I hope there aren't any of those bricks you referred to earlier inside.

And if it means I get beamed up to a croft in the north of Scotland, seeking a recording of the musical that waited for me but I never arrived may be a worthwhile exercise.

Oi! Scotland is not miserable! (I actually typed that as miserables...gosh, musical theatre freudian slips!)

exedore- thanks for getting that firmly into my head! I know what show I'll be listening to all night now!

Xmas day plans-probably relishing a day off from panto, get up 9ish probably, open presents, have breakfast, play some sort of trivia game probably, have xmas dindins, watch Doctor Who, watch films or dvd presents and eat lots of chocolate. Early bed for a boxing day matinee-booo!
