What is it that is a Christmas tradition that Oda mustdo or musthave at Christmas time?

There’s always something that we look forward to or something that if didn’t happen, it didn’t feel likeChristmas for some people.

Mine is my Turkey and Brie toasted sandwich. Complete with cranberry and smoked bacon, and grilled cheddar on top.

What’s yours?

Christmas pudding. No one in my family likes it so I get my own wee individual one and my mum always makes a big deal of it being special.

I’m enjoying this more each time I watch it too. I think Michael Can plays one of his best roles.... but surrounded by muppets, it’s not hard to look good.

I bit like being on fab eh?

We've done the whole Santa thing and crept upstairs for a treat of our own, and fallen asleep to be woken by the kids yelling for us to get up already at silly o'clock.

Lidl do wee box's of marzipan things don't ask me to spell the name of them lol but they are lovely.

Have had a few boxes.

They normally sell out in my normal shop and I have to drive round Belfast trying to find them.

But I have used my brains this year.

I have hidden two boxes for Christmas day.

Until you see someone walking down the street carrying the "emergency chair" to a family or friends house.

Does anyone remember Terry's Neopolitan chocolates? They were the sign of Christmas when I was a kid. Grandparents always had them. There were technically only 3 flavours but in dark and milk chocolate which doubled it to 6. Coffee, Orange and Normal chocolate. Loved them as a kid lol

Right now it does. Much better than the bowl of wasabi peas left over from last night.

It’s not Christmas for me until I hear Christmas Wrapping by the Waitresses. I heard it for the first time this year just yesterday and it lifted my mood straight away.
