I said nearly the exact same thing earlier to a friend. I was working the year of the bad snow and just couldn't enjoy it at all. So hoping to enjoy it from inside the house this year !

Just saw the Coca Cola add for my first time this year. It's a classic Christmas add.
It's absolutely brilliant and made my Friday night!

I went to cineworld tonight. On my way up I saw the Christmas lights on Henry street and I saw the Coke add on the big screen.

It's definitely a Home Alone and hot chocolate kind of day.

Had a fantastic day today with he family. Everyone wore their Christmas jumpers and off to see santa arrive at the Whitewater. Santa had a parade and glitter /snow bombs! Great way to kick off the festive season

We didn't go in the end. Decided to go buy a new car seat for the baba and we got our first ever Santa pressie for him. An activity cube

I'd say the ww looks amazing. Might visit tomorrow for an walk around and a Christmas coffee.

Home alone 1,2 and 3 are on Netflix.
IMO they were ruined with 3 and 4.

I haven't seen 3 and 4. I have the first two on DVD so I'll probably watch the second one tomorrow. I think I prefer the second one. We were going to get Netflix for Christmas but we're holding off until January now. (I'll have a patient at home with me for a couple of months so it will keep us from going mad entertained!) Are there any other decent Christmas films on Netflix or has Sky bought all the rights?

The Santa clause was added to Netflix as well.

It was black. Something they have done this year which I really like was they put a sign outside santas grotto saying all visits are courtesy of Whitewater and parents may make a donation to a charity instead if they wish. He doesn't give presents but the kids can talk to him all they like. Thought that was a lovely touch

Snap! I went looking for an activity cube today too. I think aldi or lidl have them due in on the 19th (the wooden ones )

We got ours in smyths, I had wanted the more expensive one, but the last time we visited the grandparents the baby had a ball with a blackboard. The cheaper one happened to have a board on it so easy decision! €40 seems a good price, if it keeps him occupied

I thought it might be very busy. It's a great spot for happenings!

I JUST SAW THE COCA COLA AD

I have seen zero ad's (no Irish tv). I have been singing "Christmas vacation.." all morning. Tree goes up this weekend to mark a month till we are home for Christmas.

Hollister11

My mam is decorating tree number 1. But she is not turning it on for 2 more weeks.

kitten_k

I don't think I would have the restraint to have it decorated and not turned on.

RentDayBlues

Oh yeah, if my trees were up I most definitely would not be able to leave the lights off for 2 weeks.

Feeling under the weather again listening to my body this time and having some down time, pjs on, candles lighting, baileys coffee on tap that's me for the evening

Get well soon, SarahLil!

Decided to get out of the house earlier and do a bit of Christmas shopping. I drove around the centre car park for 15 minutes (well, sat in traffic) and decided that it wasn't worth it. The Christmas rush has definitely started.

I'm laid up at the moment following surgery on my shoulder. Unable to even drive for the next few weeks so I'm pretty devastated. Luckily i did a lot of my shopping early and wrapped most of my presents a few weeks ago. The Christmas threads are keeping me entertained so please keep it coming.
