    Don't sweat it - my oldest is 28 😂.

    @DvB - thanks for the reminder, I had completely forgotten it. Must take a mince pie out of the freezer in the morning.

    Can't wait till Christmas podcast will be on in the car when I'm collecting the little elf from school.

    My eldest will be 18 in Dec, I feel you on the old AF

    Hate to be the bringer of bad news on Rudolph Day but Harry Belafonte has died today. Mary's Boy Child is a Christmas classic. RIP Harry.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,022 ✭✭✭BK5


    My oldest is 28 as well. 🙂

    Happy belated Rudolph to everyone.

    Rudolph Day 5 of 11 rocking around again this week (Thursday) anyone any plans to mark it? or like myself finding it difficult to really think of Christmas as we enter our summer period.

    Oddly enough I started thinking about Christmas eve yesterday while out on a walk as I knew Christmas eve falls on a Sunday this year. This Thursday I'll have a scroll online and see is there is anything Christmas related I can pick up for a bargain.

    Looks like a nice day so far so not sure how I'll mark it. Hope everyone has a good one.

    Quick heads up that Rudolph day no.6 for the year is this coming Sunday, its the middle one in the year so after Sunday/Monday we're over the crest of the hill and on the downward slope to Christmas.

    Thanks for the head's up. It's just made me realise that I am 50 and a half today, as you can see I'm very mature for my age. 😃

    Only thing is I'll be nearer 51 than 50 tomorrow 😮

    Just heading to bed after having a few beers and realised what a big day in the calendar tomorrow is for us Elves, a real milestone in the year.

    Night night and a very Happy Rudolph Day to you all. ❤️

    Happy Rudolph Day!!! I’m wearing my Christmas pjs to bed tonight, have my socks ready for tomorrow and maybe a t-shirt 😉

    Half ways there guys.

    I'm hoping to listen to some Christmas music later and I wore Christmas socks to work on Friday and Saturday.

    Just a while ago it got very dark and we had a heavy shower but it felt like an Autumn evening in October.

    It was tempting to light the fire.

    Well I might wear Christmas socks but I suppose it's Christmas in July.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,896 ✭✭✭Cork Lass




  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    Going to buy that bauble. Did it come yet by the way?

    I'm getting paid, so I'm going to celebrate Rudolph Day by paying my bills and being able to eat food. 😄



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,479 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Lucky you. I've to wait til Wednesday!! Skint.com!!

    Happy Rudolph Day everyone, will try and mark the day somehow.

    By the time the next Rudolph day comes around we'll definitely be starting to feel the "tingle" :)

    I spent my Rudolph day chasing Coldplay tickets and being sick!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    Wore my Christmas socks and to be fair I’m wearing them a lot lately 🙌🙌😉



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    Was just checking there out of curiosity and I cannot believe the next Rudolph Day (3rd last out of season one) is on Friday 😬😬😬. Once we hit the September one it really is going to fly in.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,479 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    DDD is Sept 17th and its a recurring theme in here that once we reach double figures we enter some weird time vortex where the days go by at a frightening pace!! Every year without fail it never ceases to amaze me how fast those 14 weeks go.

    It is absolutely crazy how fast those weeks go by. Don't know why but I'm getting the feels this morning. Listened to a small bit of classical Christmas FM there and bought one or two things .



  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 27,643 Mod ✭✭✭✭Posy


    From Sep 17th, the days go crazy fast. I don't know what happens!

    Those 99 days go considerably quicker than the first 10 days of January do.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,479 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Another Rudolph day upon us tomorrow, anyone anything planned to mark the day?

    Might just listen to classic Christmas movies or watch a classic Christmas film! Nothing too mad, won’t be indulging in any treats food wise - my clothing is feeling considerably tighter lately so I need to get moving and lose those pounds!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    There's a small bit of rain forecast tomorrow for when I get home from work, I may just listen to Greg Lake - I Believe In Father Christmas if it gets dull enough 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,896 ✭✭✭Cork Lass


    I think I have only one of the nice minced pies left in the freezer so I'll have that.

    Not doing anything to mark the day but it is the last non-Ber Rudolph day of the year. Also, Sept and Nov are 30 day months so time is going to speed up in the next few weeks. 😊

    Hard to believe only 3 of these left for this year!!



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,479 ✭✭✭✭DvB


    Rudolph day 9 of 11 coming up tomorrow... anyone doing anything remotely festive?

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,808 ✭✭✭Smell the glove


    I'm going to buy some indoor fairy lights for the window 😁



  • Moderators, Business & Finance Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 24,979 Mod ✭✭✭✭Loughc


    Some post work celebrations while eating celebrations. During work we will be listening to Christmas podcasts me thinks.

    Definitely getting into the season spirit lately. The urge to play Christmas music is growing. I’ve resisted for now but October Rudolph day might be a different story.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,827 ✭✭✭Jude13


    Happy Rudolph day!



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,022 ✭✭✭BK5


    Happy Rudolph Day everyone. Three quarters of the way done! 🙂
