Padders Posted December 24, 2022 Share Posted December 24, 2022 I think that Christmas is getting boring. It's getting repetitive, we do the same things every year... Shopping's a nightmare, we drink to much, eat to much, and we get ripped off when business's jack up their prices... Even the Tele is more boring than usual, every year were subjected to every Carry on film ever made. Now Ben Hur is a great film, worth watching a second time, but not 300 times. So what's to be done, I may have the solution. First of all, lets take a look at the World Cup, Footballs equivalent of Christmas, a feast of football played over a few weeks and enjoyed by millions. They don't hold it every year, it would get boring, so it's held every 4 years. Why can't they do the same with Christmas? A 4 year wait for Xmas would be an ideal solution.. This would give us the opportunity to save up lots of cash and have a right old knee's up. First of all we could start with a rehearsal for the big day, the following week, we could have the big day itself, then we could have a repeat performance for those people who missed the rehearsal, and the big day. This would stretch Xmas over 3 weeks, when we could all be drunk and merry. A party that would last 3 weeks, what's not to like. Come on, lets try it.

For a start, 4 year old Turkey would probably take a further 4 years to digest The only plus side of his inebriate ramblings - sprouts (19p @ Aldi) simmering away for 4 years should have them somewhere near edible Keep safe out there 🎅 Christmas is great !
