Full Version: What's Everyone Doing For Xmas ?
GMC Forum > Discussion Boards > CHILL OUT
Ben Higgins
This Xmas, I will spend it as I normally do.. just quietly and at home. However, one year I think it would be cool to spend it somewhere else.

How are you spending this Xmas and are any of you going away on holiday ?
Marek Rojewski
I'm pretty sure I'll also spent this X-mas at home. There is a possibility that my birthday will be celebrated in "conjunction" with X-mas, and that means chocolate cake to devour while relaxing biggrin.gif

Chocolate cake ? Combined Xmas and birthday celebrations ? Sounds like it might be real hard work, man tongue.gif tongue.gif

P.S It's great to see you again.. so what's new in your world ? smile.gif

As with most holidays, I will be spending it at work. But they cater in some good food usually. Last time was like shrimp alfredo and such.

I'll be at home, probably just eat too much and then hate myself for a while smile.gif

For me this year, its the usual christmas festivities at my girlfriends families place. Most likely there will be plenty to eat and drink and then much time spent on the coach! smile.gif

I'll spend Christmas with my family, but on the 25th I'll be off for Tokyo! happy.gif
Gitarrero
I'll be driving home for christmas (Haha...I hate that song...) which means I'm gonna spend two weeks at my mom's place in my hometown Münster. I'm gonna visit some relatives, gonna go to some more Die Toten Hosen concerts with my buddies and maybe...just maybe there'll be a surprise for you guys as well.

I'll most probably spend Christmas with my family and then hit the mountain house with the band and our girls - quiet and relaxing - just what we need after a loud year smile.gif

You guys don't eat Turkey or Chicken for Xmas in Romania ? smile.gif

This brings us to Kingdom Come on Xmass

Saoirse O'Shea
Dec 21st we're in Malaga and on the 23rd we're in Puerto de Santa Maria. XMas Eve we go to a party at a neighbour's house, starts at about 9pm and finishes sometime on the 26th but we tend to leave at about 1 am on XMas morning. Xmas day we have as a family day. 26th we're having frineds over for lunch. 27th and 28th we're off to Ronda to stay at some friends.

We don't have turkey for XMas lunch as none of us like it. Each year we alternate who cooks starter, main course and a dessert. It's my turn this year to do the dessert so I'm doing an orange creme (bit like an orange flavoured creme brule with some oloroso sherry added). My daughter's doing the main course and my wife's doing the starter.

The big celebration here though isn't XMas but The Three Kings (Epithany) on 6th January so the festivities go on until then. My daughter getspresents for both XMas and Three Kings.

They even eat the pork skin! It's called 'sorici' and it's uttered 'sho'reech' - my God this is so funny laugh.gif

Just the usual traditional way... family, excited kids who can´t wait until it gets evening, parents. loads of food and my sons playing flute and me playing guitar - everyones singing (all togehter its sounds so horrible that it sounds good again).....
the best time of year to slow down and refill your batteries...
and then we got to our cabin in the woods of styria, hope for a lot of snow and celebrate the end of the year...

best time of the year!
