Twiglets. It's about the only time that it's easy to find them in Eel-sized portions.

![]() Mine has to be a jar of Red Cabbage or Dundee Cake I digress, I only have mince pies, iced fruit cake and port at Christmas. I could add Christmas pudding but we buy a few of those which we have up to Easter. |

Port and Lemonade Mixed? I was given a sample of port from M & S and to be honest I don't remember ever trying port before but it was very nice and proceeded to buy a bottle at half price for £8.

So have we and we don't even know if our daughter-in-law's mother likes port but it was so good we would gladly swap it for something else and keep it.
The decanter it came in caught my eye, the offer made it a bargin. |

Christmas cushions on the sofa & a Christmas draught excluder behind the front door, even though I don't use a draught excluder at any other time of the year!

2 weeks off work. An urge to listen to depressing songs from the 1970s. |

It won't last until after Christmas so I guess I am going to have to buy a few more bottles before the offer ends at the end of the month. I'm not sure about adding lemonade though.

Usually some random illness. . Every year I'm absolutely fine until Christmas arrives and something happens. This year it's an ear infection, last year it was a bad cold. Think I'm allergic to it.
