It's 2 weeks until the big day.. and I'm feeling peckish for a mince pie and baileys* or two. Who wants to join me in having a virtual Christmas do?

Paper plates are on the side, Cliff Richard is on the radio and I've got some party hats. Who's game?


*Other good brands are available.

    Yes I'll join.  Who can resist Baileys?  I've put iTunes on but can't find my Christmas Playlist, will have to make a new one.

    I think I might start wrapping up presents today.

    For the first time in the last 5 years I am not dreading Christmas.
    Two of my closest family members have actually been in touch with each other.

    So today is a good day!  :)

    @ShirleyW Well that's lovely to hear and brilliant about your family reconnecting. Do you have much to wrap? I haven't made a start yet  :o

    @PSp27pe2 If you'd like to post photos here, that would be fine. As long as you are comfortable with what you are sharing  :) 

    What's your favourite Christmas party food and do you have any songs you love listening to?

    I love sausage rolls I'm having Baileys right now. We should do a zoom get together for the members with @Giovanni_Scope.

    I love anything vegan 🌱 but do like meat free sausage rolls or mushroom pate, and love christmas artisan nut based cheeses
    and 🎵 the old mariah classic 😉 or last Christmas 🎄 
    I also love that film of the same name too 🙂 very good on bbc iplayer currently

    For me, Christmas really starts when I watch The Snowman. Then get upset when he melts (whyyyyy!!  :s

    @durhamjaide2001 oh good idea! And yum, you can't go wrong with sausage rolls. I've yet to try a meat free one @PSp27pe2 - I do keep meaning to try.

    Did someone say Wham..
