Christmas Time!
****************************************
Every house in the world has a different way of celebrating christmas. Christmas trees and mistletoe are traditional aspects. Does anybody do anything different, or even slightly bizarre, a family tradition perhaps?
We are invading Exmouth next July for the usual holiday.
If so, might have to meet up if you have any spare time.
My mother-in-law has a tradition for any time of the year which is really based around constant feeding so after our visit I will probably not need to eat for a month or 2.
Christmas day is usually just the 4 of us so it's watching the kids open their presents (we don't get each other any so I don't get to open anything on Christmas Day) then watching TV. Last year was the first year we actually had a Christmas Dinner of sorts, might cook one again this year.
Crackers in the evening with whatever we're having for tea and then Boxing Day is over to my parents and who-ever else from my family comes down. Hopefully get a few Blu-rays from my parents as well!
Realised I had a bit of holiday left too this year, so I've taken 2 and a bit weeks off over Christmas. Maybe even get some gaming in for once!

Fixed
Oh and get quite drunk normally.
No real family traditions except for a good ol' game of Scattergories before settling down to watch Dr Who. My dad is off to Miami for Christmas which may be the start of a tradition, but I hardly think it counts yet!
