Finally getting into the Christmas spirit...

[pawl]

Just give me a glass of Advocaat with a cherry in and i'll be happy!

Put some lemonade to pep it up and call it a snowball.

I know it’s already been invented.

I've been feeling really festive up until now, but it seems to have all peaked too early. I had to listen to classic FM in the car to avoid the constant Christmas song barrage (which has been going on for a couple of weeks it seems). They've just put christmas music on in the office, so I've had to put my headphones in and listen to some Children of Bodom

Make sure they buy all the drinks!

Finished work until 2nd this morning. Got a little Christmas gift from my employer, I think @potsy might have missed out on his by finishing a couple of days early. (By the way Potsy, the rumours were true!)

I think Potsy is just jealous of my beard and wants to emulate my amazing good looks

I assume he'll need a shovel to get the same look?

They won't be - we're going somewhere else now. Said boss hasn't renewed a colleagues contract, and wasn't 'bothered' when another colleague has just resigned after 12 years - two long servers going. Rather not socialise with them.

I haven't got a television.

...I am not a fan of Christmas, but thought I'd make an attempt at being festive for a change.

I am growing a Santa Claus beard, even got the grey to make it look authentic

This is the longest I've ever lasted not shaving, usually got fed up by now

Anyone else struggle to get excited by the festive season?

For years and long after he’d retired one of the maintaince men at our hospital use to start mid summer growing his beard so when he was “helping” Santa on his Christmas Day visit to the children’s ward. Santa really did have a real bread.

@post you will always be my favourite humbug.

No decs here, thought we would get away with it totally but we have people round on Saturday so better make an effort.

If dad wasn't here we wouldn't bother, dust collectors.

I haven't got a television.

We've just got a new one - do you want to buy our old one?

 

[Nigel-YZ1]

I've done secret santa, have a few hours left to work, but feel too ill to get into it properly. I just need the break, and lots of sleep.

You two are glass half empty chaps i take it?

And when did you convert to half full, @Accy cyclist?

 

[fossyant]

40 mins left and I'm going home.
