The all new Saturday afternoon to stop the moaning oldies thread...

[Uncle Mort]

Been up since 7am. Collected a parcel from the Post Office, been to Sainsburys, filled the car with petrol (86p a litre with discount voucher ) Had breakfast and read the Independent, ironed the children's clothes, Bed linen in the wash.

What to do this Saturday afternoon?

Watch the Rugby

[Barman]

I am putting up Xmas tree and decorations... 

[Uncle Mort]

A bit early 

[Barman]

I know... we're off in two weeks tho so we have to put them up early 'to get the benefit' like... 

I've done my bit anyway... I'm off down the dump soon with a load of broken glass and stuff...   

[The Moan Ranger]

I will watch the rugby, however, I feel we will get hammered

Snoopy Loopy is running again today in the 2.40 at Newbury, but I think I will go for an each way on Slim Pickings.

Will you be home for Christmas? If so that is surely when you will get the benefit and that would be the best time to put them up ~ Christmas Eve That way they will not be looking tired and dusty by Christmas Day.
If you are not going to be at home why bother with decorations at all?
You saw them last year anyway.
I cannot understand your thinking on this .............. it is just so utterly silly .................... What?
It's LL's idea you say?  'Nuff said. I fully understand your position  
Go to the tip and stop for a beer on the way ~ you've earned it.

No... we don't get back 'til the 29th... 

All LL's idea as you have correctly deduced... ours is not to reason why, etc.
