Don't tell me: you start your present shopping on Christmas Eve?

Christmas every day.
As the anniversary of my birth is quite close to the winter solstice (or so I'm told), I look forward to that.

Don't care, Mrs Wife's present is sorted and she does all the rest. I am at Gatwick North on my way to Budapest until Wednesday.
I may, or may not, be in a bar. ![Beer | [beer]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/beer.gif)

I got home 11pm last night and the flat was cold and I was sober. Well soberish.
By Jesus, does it take a while to warm the place up, I sat in the sauna for half an hour to warm up

It's my dad's birthday next week and I've just ordered a present that, if he likes it, has a second part I can give him for Christmas 
Other than that, nope.
I like doing as few as possible for Christmas.
Some people insist on sending a card, but I've managed to keep that number to an absolute minimum...
Sending cards to people you never see anyway or to people you see almost daily, ugh!
What a horrible time-consuming tradition! 
So that leaves eating all the good food at my parent's house, om nom nom!

Is that that pagan shopping festival that occurs every December? Don't do that; nothing to think about! Simples!

Sister-in-law's birthday tomorrow, mother-in-law's on Wednesday, wife's on Friday, over sister-in-law's the following week, two neices and a nephew in November.
Get through that lot and maybe start to think about Christmas.
Some men are born mediocre, some men achieve mediocrity, and some men have mediocrity thrust upon them.

You do realise that, given it's Samsung, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S 10.5" Titanium Bronze Plus will be released in another 2 weeks. You'll probably have to keep the one your bought for yourself and get the missus the new one. It's only fair.
cheers

Would be nice. Sammy's using last year's phone chips in their tablets, making them kinda meh performance wise. A faster chip would be a nice upgrade. Them putting the buttons in the proper android order instead of bass 'ackwards would be nice too, but is probably too much to hope for.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Only as far as Beth's started baking[^] and we're actually managing to keep Toblerone in the cupboard unopened (which in itself is a miracle!). 
We've not done any shopping yet, but the Christmas Parties seem to almost as soon as Halloween is past. We've two booked so far (one for the office and one for my church) but I'm sure others will be along soonish.
In other news I can predict that there will be absolutely no turkey.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Shalom, Kornfeld,
That KB is the trojan horse that will automatically download Win 10 to your machine even if you have not chosen to install Win 10.

I know - after all the reports I saw I memorized it's number by heart
That's why I found the 'description' so 'funny'...
