e: happy Christmas goons, I hope you have a pleasant and/or chill day.

We got good things off to a good start with my mum's partner drinking too much, and THEN pouring himself a quadruple whisky and baring his soul to us about how much he worries about his son, and how much he regrets not being a better dad (and then falling over, twice). It was sad but also quite nice at the same time as he's a lovely bloke and we all rallied round to cheer him up.

My four year old son has been having great fun racing his new toy car christmas present up and down the corridor.

Unfortunately his way of telling us how much he enjoys racing, is running up and down yelling 'I'm racing! I'm a racist!!'. He must have been watching top gear at daycare.

Merry Christmas UKMT!

Ignoring this post

Merry Xmas all! Just ate breakfast, soon will clean the cat tray then have a nice walk through the woods to see if my friendly local petrol station is open for some coffee. Then my neighbours have invited me over for Xmas dinner, so the rest of the day should be spent with 2 nice ladies and their cats (and my cats too, should they decide to wander in).

Happy Christmas, UKMTGoons.

First sober Christmas in a decade. I am enjoying the lack of hangovers, but it’s quite weird to be cooking and not drinking. Guinness Zero ftw.

I also managed to play some death/grindcore so obnoxiously noisy that my mother had to leave the kitchen. The metalhead’s dream. It only took 36 years. Chef’s rules; chef’s tunes.

When I used to still go 'home' for Xmas (in my 20s, early 30s), I did not participate in the production of food which was a highly stressful affair with everyone screaming at each other about the roast spuds etc (and my sister's gob made Gordon Ramsey look like a candidate for sainthood), but after the big dinner, I would lock myself in the kitchen for the afternoon/evening with a stash of metal tapes and do all the washing up while WW3 was occurring in the living room with the tantrums, arguing, fighting etc.

Then mother ruined it by purchasing a dishwasher so there were only a few big pans to do that dishwashers 30 years ago couldn't cope with

Since 1995 - apart from one time in 2006 when the emotional blackmail was piled on in spades by my sister - I haven't done Xmas. So lovely & calm, watch what I want on tv, usually go for a long walk in the afternoon but not this year as I have got "the 100 day cough". And I ate my annual gjetost yesterday with some nice seedy bread. So being as all the shops are shut today, I have to live on what's in (no naughty food - it all got et already!)

Anyway - merry Crimble to those that do, and it'll all be over in another 12 hours for those who are not having a good time.

Corgis love bread. And Puro


I did the gift giving & being sociable, now I'm writing thank you emails to a couple of generous relations & it's all been pretty chill. My dad is happily playing Hitman Collection I got him, my mother is in the kitchen listening to one of the CDs I got her (tbh as an adult my favourite part of Christmas now is shopping for my ma's presents, because it involves me doing a deep dive through 2023 new music & finding some interesting stuff that might be up her street. Fortunately we have a lot of crossover in our tastes despite my inability to convince her to give death & black metal a chance...) currently listening to We Are Urusei Yatsura by Urusei Yatsura, a Glasgow band from the mid-90s for anyone who doesn't know them. Kind of Paverment-y? It sounds pretty decent from the bits I've heard.

I don't mind a bit that christmas in this how has been extremely low key. Kind of prefer that tbh

Thank you santa for giving me a passive aggressive wife who's blaming me for making her feel bad and ruining Christmas because she bought me the wrong thing from my amazon wishlist.

Rather than the variety of films or puzzles or cool looking fidget toy type things I'd added at her request, said gift was an HDMI splitter that I'd already bought for the house/her back in October so that she could switch between things in her office without having to mess about with cables.

She could also only see it because she set the filter to include things already purchased.

At least my son likes his toddler trampoline. :/

Just unwrapped a prezzie from one of my brothers:
Absolutely perfect.
It's a "my social battery" brooch:



I remember slinking out of a party at my parents' home to get respite in the shed for a while and discovered my brother also skulking in the shed getting respite :)

And now I just opened my front door to get my boots (make an effort to at least have a bit of a walk today) and discover a large (360g) bar of choc outside the door - anonymous - though I have my suspicions.... one of my neighbours.
