[Publius Ovidius]

when we lived in Melksham, we were going to a West ham vs Southampton game for Christmas - boxing day, my brother threw up in the car and we mopped it up with the NME Chriostmas edition with the words to "Merry Xmas war is over" on the front.

Fry's Snowballs

Egg Nog sick: )

Subbuteo World Cup editions

Do you celebrate Xmas in late January

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Tom

Do you celebrate Xmas in late January

Yes indeed I do, US, when the pubs have finally emptied of once-a-year 'two-pot-screamers', the restaurants have stopped throwing over-priced over-cooked meagre-portioned slop at the punters, and the gyms have emptied of the New Year Resolutionists. Ah! BLISS!
