Are you all set for The Winter Gifting Day festivities

Joseph walked
Mary rode
On a donkey
Down the road

Does anyone have the full lyrics to this belter I heard at the nativity the other day?

It’s to the tune of that old “give a dog a bone” song.

Will you whistle the tune there.

I’d say more than half

My young fella got a Kerry jersey off the cousins. Prize possession. Leads to loads of banter with the coaches at u 8 training

Great to get this completed and submitted before the Indo and Times Sports crosswords this week

Are there electronic versions of the crosswords? Didn’t see any Indo in the usual spot I go to for Irish papers on the mainland over the weekend

There are electronic versions of regular crosswords but not sure they afford the same latitude to the Xmas jumbo sports ones. Last year the Indo didn’t publish theirs till the 27th or something :roll_eyes:

EJ is guaranteeing delivery in time for Christmas if you order before 5pm on the 21st :+1:

A productive morning, brown bread, spiced beef and Christmas Day gravy sorted.

Will the bread still be fresh on Christmas day? Are you freezing it?

Sorry, that’s not Christmas Day bread. Thats bread for eating between now and Christmas. I’ll get the daughter to do another one Christmas eve.

Hopefully there won’t be another repeat of the 2018 bread sauce debacle on this thread.

Thinking of heading out tonight to do the ‘big shop’ for the Christmas dinner etc. Feels a tad early but might be more bedlam towards weekend?

The wife says it’s murder but sure it might be quietening down now.

Aye. I think I’ll head off now shortly. I’ll fire a few podders on try to keep my calm.

Thats cool.
