There is some sort of interactive map where you can see the Coca-Cola truck wending its way around the UK I think.
I intend celebrating with a fray bentos stake and mushroom pie, followed by a trip to a gypsy boxing match.

Decorations might go up this weekend.
Suppose I better get the kids an advent calender too. Can't believe that in this day and age the humble advent calender is still going strong, you would have thought it's days were numbered!

We're having a slightly muted one with impending baby status, but have done a small bit of shopping. The Mrs is going the Trafford Centre tomorrow with hers and my Mum tomorrow equiped with my card, hoping she can get herself sorted and get a few other things for parents. Work have kindly offered to give a few of us 'Christmas shopping day', so I've taken it for Christmas Eve. Haven't been of for Christmas Eve for years. Will probably spend the time on the PS4, watch a film, have a wank and have a few beers.
Christmas Day we'll be going to the Ma and Pa in-laws for dinner then up my parents for the late afternoon / evening. Fucking off up the Vale on Boxing day with my Uncle and cousins, probably get a bit merry then have a nice weekend doing fuck all else.
The week after is a shit though. In for 3 days, off 1 and in Friday. Who the fuck planned Christmas this year?

Remember the olden days when there was a Bond film on at around 3? And a rotation of one of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, the Wizard of Oz or Von Ryans Express? That was fucking Christmas, I liked the predicatability of it. The fact that it didn't start until 1st December, and was heralded by the Old Spice Ad with the surfer, the Denim one with the womans hand going in his shirt and Bob Fucking Todd being Santa for Yardley, who promoted perfumes for grannies smelling of Lily of the Valley. Opening the advent calendar made December feel about 13 weeks long, and you made stained glass windows at school out of black sugar paper and coloured tissue. It seemed to be the same every year and that made Christmas seem really reassuring to me, and magical too.

Am now finished for Xmas (decided to come home early so I could do a food shop on the way) and don't go back 'til Tues 6th Jan :-)
All presents bought but not wrapped.
Feeling rather fucking festive as it goes.
Got some loose ends to tie up work wise but I can do that from home, only 2/3 hours worth.
Merry Christmas fuckers!!!!!!

Done fuck all yet. Tree going up later which the fair lady will spend fucking hours trying to get right,presents Friday/Saturday via as many online next day deliveries I can get without having to go into the forsaken shithole that is Hanley, and work finished Tuesday. Have to admit I don't feel fucking festive whatsoever yet but I'm sure I will once work is done and dusted.
