As for Crimbo, not bothering about it just now.

You haven't got an option that states: "I want to beat anyone who puts up a Poll about Chrissmus, in September, to death with a frozen Elf".
So I can't vote.

It's too early to be excited about Christmas for me. So much to do before then.
Although I do hate the Christmas period when it comes to my job, it gets so stressful when people argue over whose turn it is to get Christmas off work... even when they aren't actually entitled to it.
I thought that this thread was going to be about "Creamola" and that it was a Petition to bring back "Creamola Foam"
So I say "Bring Back Creamola Foam" it was the best drink I had when I was a Lad.
Creamola Foam the True "Scotlands other National Drink" !!!!
served someone today doing there crimbo shopping,loads of charged up gift cards,job done. I think that its really impersonal or is it easier nowadays given the choice of things to buy,at least the recipient can get what they want?:confused

hi kodiak
the only known tin of creamola foam is in the bank of scotlands safe in kirkwall, the recipie was accidentially distroyed in a fire years ago and the company is in discussion with the owner of the last known tin, so they can buy it and send it to a lab so they can reproduce it again, but dont hold your breath as i know the owner and he is holding out for a better deal.......

Help ma Bob! I thought maybe someone was campaigning to have a certain obscenity allowed on the org. Excuse me while I go and wash my mind out with soap.

George can you wash my mind out whilst you are at it please, that was my first thought too.
I cant put what my initial thought was when I realised the real subject matter (I would be banned for life and a bitty longer), but I will say I agree with Northener.
Way too early for thinking about that. Start thinking in mid november about it!! ;)

I know I will get shot down for saying this, but I hate Christmas with a vengance. It seems like a time of year when everyone goes mad on the spends and then regrets it untill July, also expectations overtake common sense.
If we are going to start talking about Christmas now can someone wake me about the 15th January, baa humbug.:(
in this day and age i dont think its ever too early to think about it.....u gotta grab those bargains when u find them.....we got the first of our xmas sweeties in the shop the other day.....:confused

Have already bought some stocking fillers - got to spread the finances and grab the offers when they're on. Not going too mad and certainly not getting myself into debt over it.

I hate christmas,only bother with it for the kids sake but its the most stressful horrible time of year and I cant wait until my kids are old enough for us to just sod off somewhere and come back when its over-sad thing to admit i know but I have had more than my fair share of xmas disasters :eek: x

christmas should be cancelled, i couln`t care less about it,
a load of old twoddlers if you ask me,
half baked pagen yule log good tide waffle, who in their right mind would go out, chop down a tree drag it into the house cover it in silver snot then worship it ??????????? you have to be completely bonkers to do it,
if you want to celebrate the life and time of our lord jesus then please do it in private,
does you kid really need £1000s of pounds to be spent on him/her to celebrate the faith that has been thrust apon us,
when you sit there stuffing your faces with over cooked turkey and all the trimmings telling yourelf " i have worked hard for this" , ask youself does the poorer folks of our country have any less faith, the tramp that has cardboard boxes to sleep in he still wishes the others a very merry christmas, and he has nothing but faith, no turkey no trimmings no log fire no warmth from fellow humans, just a closed door and a disgusted look on the faces of people who dare to judge him,
enjoy your christmas when it comes,

Way too early to be excited but when it gets nearer the time, there is no stopping me! I love Christmas but I prefer it to start being hyped up nearer the end of November, not the beginning of September.;)
So I say "Bring Back Creamola Foam" it was the best drink I had when I was a Lad.

I love Christmas! Me and my OH never get ourselves into money troubles over it though! We are starting to buy stuff already. Just getting things each week
Athrun will be 1 year and 2 months by then, last year he was still too ickle so its really exciting for me! Or him should i say...:confused
I love decorating, knowing that on christmas day i get to see everybodys face when they see santa has come, sitting down for a family meal and arguing who gets the last bit of pudding! :D
Bring it on cos i really cant wait for it! Iv been counting down since july to be honest! ;)
i have the birth of my 3rd son to look forward to in November, so its too early to think about christmas, but i am looking forward to santa visiting 3 boys this year!!!

You'll get a more satisying 'thwack' with a frozen Elf, limp ones don't have the same impact.
And you can cook them from frozen, too.

Since the international dwarf throwing competition at Canvey Island has been banned I am surprised the PC brigade has not jumped on this one with shouts of “ELFISM”.:lol:

defrosted, this is an ideal way of tenderising them though. Would the force of the thwack not be a wee bit more with a defrosted one? somethin to do with momentum or somethin .......

Hmmm...this need a hands-on science approach.
There's only a finite number of Elves available, so we'll need to round up all the shortarses on the .Org for the experiments.
We'll freeze half of them in Jockys' new slaughterhouse and just stun the rest.
Right, anyone under 6' 1" report to me......

Excited and dreading it in equal measure!
Im due my 3rd baby on the 5th Jan but went early with the other 2!
Last year we had chicken pox and the year before the sickness bug so Christmas may be jinxed in our house.... Lauren will NOT be impressed if Mummy is in hospital on Christmas day getting her a new brother or sister!
I wont be impressed waddling around the kitchen doing dinner though if still waiting and Hubby is not to hot at buying and wrapping pressies though he will have to this year.
As i no longer have kids in the house Christmas is pretty boring. i think i'll borrow some kids, but just for a few hours on christmas morning then they will be sent back.:lol:
i was in Tesco tonight about 5.30 and noticed that staff were beginning to put out christmas chocolates on sale and i haven't even been on my summer hols yet.:(
