    When someone else has took the cooking duties. Laura's mums cooking Christmas dinner. It will be first family Christmas dinner I won't be cooking.

    After presents have been opened there's very little to look forward to until Kempton on Boxing Day.

    I can have a drink but it won't be the same if I'm not doing my best Keith Floyd impression.

    Does anyone else have Christmas routines or traditions they like to uphold? :)

    Crystal cooks the Christmas dinner (she's a fantastic cook) and always says "It'll be ready when it's ready". Meaning there's no set time for it and we make the day as relaxing as possible. These past few years, I ensure I'm drinking port from the moment I get up to get me as relaxed as quickly as possible.
    :D:D

    Me and my Dad used to drive to Oakwell to see if The Reds were training. They never were, the lazy so and so's.

    Haven't done it since he's gone, but might make the drive myself this year for old times sake.
