Moderator DirtyDT Posted November 11, 2013 Author Moderator Share Posted November 11, 2013 Ho, ho, ho is it just me who has the Christmas tingle? Only a few weeks to go before we find out if we have been naughty or nice and that, kindly faced, bariatric man with the wacky dress sense pops in and gives us lucky ones gifts. A time when we can celebrate the birth of baby Jesus with too much food, booze and old films on the TV, just like they did in days gone by. A time when, if we have any cash left after the Government, banks and the rest of the profiteering world have taken there cut, we can spend our heating and cooking money on buying stuff that the recipient doesn't really want or need. A time when most people have to visit people they don't really like or get on with and spend a few hours pretending all is peachy. What's not to like? Ho, ho, ho I will be snuggled up with my loved ones, hiding from family and tucking into Turkey, sprouts - I love sprouts - all the trimmings and looking forward to the Stilton, smoked salmon, cold cut and pickles in the evening. Anyone know what old films are on tv on Christmas and boxing days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noise Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Most likely Zulu, Die hard, Miracle on 34th street, home alone O and its a wonderful life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted November 11, 2013 Author Moderator Share Posted November 11, 2013 Most likely Zulu, Die hard, Miracle on 34th street, home alone O and its a wonderful life I really hope so, they are some of my favourite films. Christmas wouldn't be the same without them! I hope the Dads army and George and Mildred films are on again this year. Nothing better than to sit and watch them whilst stuffing my face with half a tin of roses, half a tin of quality street and a bowl of salty peanuts straight after Christmas lunch in preparation of my tea.

Moderator DirtyDT Posted November 11, 2013 Author Moderator Share Posted November 11, 2013 This early in the year? YES YOU ARE!!! There are only 6 Saturdays to go to Crimbo. That is 6 weekends when you can be pushed and shoved for some Primark "bargains" or barged out of the way in W H Smiths. 6 Weekends to make your annual trip to Body Shop. I've always been a little premature!!!!! Well if Dads army aint on this year i have the movie on DVD so it will be on and the father inlaw has Zulu so that will be on too ha ha. saying that i watched the Dads Army episode the other night when they where issued the Artillery Gun such a funny episode! I do love Dad's army - the series and the film. Zulu was on TV (a few times) the other weekend so not sure if it made the bill this year. Are those nice boys Morecambe and Wise on again this year?

Noise Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Are those nice boys Morecambe and Wise on again this year? Cant find any thing on Google so may have to wait and see, may have some thing on comedy central or on the BBC, they are normally on around crimbo time along with a good Steptoe and Son Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's 4 weeks in which to figure out what I'm buying those who *have* been good this year (ie members of the family who have not pissed off my wife) and get them sorted, wrapped and delivered in time... with another week before December's paycheque, with which I can either decide to get back to building myself a decent gaming PC immediately, or start saving for any January sales that may happen!! It is, however, roughly 6 weeks until the PC has to be turned off and put into hibernation for almost a week while we have various people visiting and yuletiding and all that... the upside, though, is that my homebrew mead might be ready in time!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
