christmas

Right.......it is now 07.25 Christmas day. Just realised I forgot to buy a present for MrsD. What can I do ????? Any suggestions welcome.

We'd like to wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and thank you for your continued support in 2020. :highfive: It's going to be different for many of us this year, but we hope you all have as good a time as you can. :smile: Take care, be safe, and here's to a hopeful 2021. Best...

Given this is what cyclists may want to achieve on these dark nights Ford have developed a Christmas style jumper for cyclists which generates a Christmas tree shape of light on the ground around their bike which supposedly helps motorists to give them sufficient room. There are no plans to...

Just heard Chris Rhea singing "Driving Home For Christmas". Years ago I was called out on Christmas eve to do an urgent quote for a government Dept. They actually handed me the order, some £50Ks worth. Driving home, mid afternoon, filthy weather, stuck in motorway traffic and that song came on...

We live in a small(ish) close of about 20 houses. There are none we don't like but maybe 6 we converse with regularly. Us 7 have posted christmas cards through the letter boxes for some 15 years. No problem, a nice touch. Today I found one posted from a new(ish) couple further up the close...

Less than 4 weeks to go. Just been into Sainsbury’s and around the town and it really doesn’t seem like it should for the time of year. Ok, clear blue skies and very warm on the seafront, but barely a hint That we are weeks away of from our major festival. In JS, there are mince pies, Stollen...

Hi I started cycling quite regularly in May at the start of the first lockdown. I've kept it going since the lockdown lifted and, despite the darker, colder mornings, still take my bike to work. I'm thinking of getting some better clothing for my rides. I've got a decent jacket (Gore) and...

George Square , Glasgow, today.

Thought it may be worth a thread to share tips and ideas for Christmas... only 2 and a bit months to go!!! I love the whole buildup - planning, shopping, and eventually, the cooking! Tend to be a bit of a creature of habit and quite traditional too. Kelly Bronze are great turkeys, although I...

Wow what's happened to good Tv at Christmas.. They always used to put a good afternoon film on the box. Its Boxing Day and ITV 1 think Horse Racing is what families and Children would like to watch this afternoon. Im going back to bed lol.

It has been a very crazy Christmas Season at work. Work, work, and more work and no time for any bike riding. Finally the craziness is done and I'm almost back to normal. Just the end of year inventory audit coming up and then the bikes will be out and about playing in my Winter Wonderland. I...

Is anyone going out for a spin tomorrow? I am seriously tempted but have yet to suggest to Mrs Colly. If I don't make an appearance on these pages over the next few days..........you will know it didn't go well.:unsure::unsure:

Someone Mrs D knows told her about one of their clients who is the marketing manager for a large national group of foodstores (I wont name it). As such she is responsible for sourcing and distributing xMillions of turkeys. She has just realised that she forgot to get her own family turkey and...

Me and my daughter loving it, rest of family not so much!.

Only home made ones allowed please. Always love making mine so many memories helping my mum make them. Love eating it too that and the other 2 loaves :laugh: The last few years I've been using my grandmother's recipe which until I found it must have been well over 30 years since it was last...

Wife's cousin is a theoretical physicist, so we get a nuclear card each year! Anyone else get unusual cards?

Christmas Dinner.... I have concluded that the inevitable stress of Christmas dinner is created by adverts, supermarkets and TV chefs... It's a Sunday dinner for farks sake!!! We do it quite happily 51 weeks of the year but can we the consumers be trusted to manage by ourselves on one day of the...

I’m spending time with my dad in london tonight and then flying to the Netherlands 🇳🇱 tommorow. Have a happy Christmas 🎄 or Fijne Kerst

As the title says ....Hope you all have a great time .....All the best.. Mike .

Where will you/have you done your Christmas shopping? 🎅

Has anyone been out cycling on Christmas day ? Ive never done it - always had the kids family & dog to think of - but the kids and dog are older now - so tempted this year Or is Christmas family time to be cherished - and no cycling on that day ?

I have to admit, not sure if its an age thing or not, but I had a tear in my eye thinking back to my old man working 7 days to keep 5 of us in the manner to which we had become accustomed, and my dear old mum working nightshift and trying to stretch the cash as far as possible to make sure we...
