"The very festive Christmas thread"

Being 1st December, I now announce the Christmas hubbub officially open.

With 24 more days to go until the big day, what are your plans for Christmas? Are you going to veg out in front of the TV? Prepare a Christmas meal for a family visit? Or are you avoiding the whole thing with a big, fat 'Humbug!'

I'm debating when the Merry Christmas Charlie Brown and Muppets Christmas Carol get played this year and, of course, exactly when we will put up our Christmas tree.

That is a "Classic" Christmas movie ....

Something like this?

Christmas lights done, a triumph of style, design & bad taste!

That's what I thought. Maybe start now for Christmas 2012. :) But be warned, you might find this on your door.

I have the feeling we annoy the neighbours opposite us already. All our lights twinkle, it must be very distracting. :-)

Yeah, this is just down the road from us. Might be an interesting project at some point but programming the controller is so much work.[/i]

@Garin (Hmmm beat me to it) What has The Who got to do with that?
Interesting 'lightshow' though:¬)

Can you hear those REIN deer coming? ;¬)

Pete, I'd prescribe a dose of A Charlie Brown Christmas. If this isn't strong enough then you need to follow it up with A Muppets Christmas Carol, Santa Claus the Movie and Scrooged.

Yeah, Muppets & Scrooged were class. The only seasonal film I watched last year was Four Christmases but that was pretty rubbish. Might have to choose my festive viewing a bit more wisely this year if I am to get in any kind of Christmas spirit. So far I really CBA but being a miserable git at Christmas is actually quite hard work so I might have to try to get in some kind of festive spirit.

Hold on pb. I wanted to get your input on christmas movies in another thread I was going to make eventually. P.S you forgot Die Hard ;)
