One of the best things about christmas is cake.....
Rich fruit with cherries and marzipan...Yule logs.... Mincemeat cake and mincemeat bakewell tart, polish honey cake and gingerbread.... part of the pleasure of the season all that baking..shortbread and boozy chocolate truffles too..

[factor-fiction]

I hope this doesn't mean we are soon going to start seeing Christmas avatars?

[B00]

rowan- move in with me for the festive season? I think i love you!

Abs-bloody-lutely Factor, bring 'em on! Oh, I see you have, nice one ;-)

[missnemesis]

Is it not bad enough that we are being subjected to C******** ads on TV already without having to put up with all this seasonal jollification here too?

Please Boo, it's only September. Take it awayyyyyyyyyyyyyy! :-(

[B00]

Nu huh, tis (the season to be jolly) here to stay, so ner ner ner ner ;-)

[Ankou]

begone heathen, get in the cage with the marmite fans.

[daftgrandad]

Just have to agree with you BOO,a great time for all especially the little ones.
I usually leave it until after Bonfire Night,then drive the family mad singing
carols until Twelth Night.

[missnemesis]

Me too. I may run out of good cheer early at this rate though! I've promised myself to abuse ChatterBank horrendously when we're (much) closer to the time. Some will consider me evil for this.

O BOO - NOT YET PER-LEASE! Love Christmas but not in September - not had my "Summer" holiday yet!! But there again I did buy all my Christmas cards in a sale last week! .....

[B00]

Why not Ankou? If it makes you feel better saying 'em like that, fill your boots!

Abuse CB? I like the sound of that, can we start now? doesn't have to be about Christmas, lets just do it anyway.

[Ankou]

true, you'll be all crimbo'd out by spooky wooky night (haloween)

[AB Editor]

"Abuse CB? I like the sound of that, can we start now? doesn't have to be about Christmas, lets just do it anyway."

I'll see what I can do. Might pop something on next time the scufflenudgers get uppity on the weekend.

[jackthehat]

So, it's round to Ankou's gaff for first-footing with a loaf of bread, a piece of coal and a block of marzipan liberally spread with Marmite.....?

[Ankou]

well if that keeps the turkeys safe jack, so be it.

"scufflenudgers" lol

[jackthehat]

First-footing comes too late to save the Turkeys, I'm afraid.......they'll have had their chips by then!
