Fairbairn Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 We've not got ours up yet (although it'll be the same as last year so I could just reuse that picture!). We're hosting Christmas dinner this year (got 21 of the buggers coming!) so the house is currently being mopped, scrubbed and polished within an inch of it's life!!

Why bother cleaning it will look like that pub you used to frequent in New Sneddon St by the time they leave😁 I am having palpitations about Mrs F’s beautiful shiny floor already.

Grim Jim Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Everything we have has been raised to the curtain rails like a Christmas pelmet away from Godzilla the pup 🥵 I've finally got a couple of minutes on here while the beast is asleep!

Your furniture probably not. Alfie came today. Our living room looks like Pet Cemetery , he destroys every toy he has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite like the look of those black and white boxes , I wonder what is in them 🤫 Nothing from Dunelm obviously. I will need to lift my shopping standards to get presents in boxes like that 😁 It could do with a bit of colour Bobster. Duncan will be livid . Get some colourful lights on it.
