Did the Christmas food and drink shop this morning, Shop was surprisingly empty even at 9/10am, then came home and spent 30 minutes unpacking and putting it all away.
Most of the rest of the day was spent lounging and I have just now put the Gammon (4.5kg unsmoked bone-in) into its marinading bag (simple honey and fresh orange). This will be cooked tomorrow on a low heat (100-120c) for about 10 hours.
This evening I have a few presents to wrap and then tomorrow I have nothing much planned (except the Gammon).
Picking up my mate, bringing him to my house, having a few drinks here before heading out to Liverpool for another mates birthday night out. Tomorrow will most likely be spent hung over.
Pick my daughter up tomorrow at 4,then to the pub for diner at 5.
Monday morning is a little bit of xmas shopping for my daughter's mum,then at 2pm me and my daughter are going to see snow white and the 7 dwarfs at the regent in ipswich as one of her xmas present,then back to my daughters for a Chinese dinner
Today: cleaned the house from top to bottom and chilled out while food deliveries arrive
Tomorrow: off to Cardiff to see Jimmy Carr (had to sacrifice my season ticket vs. Man Utd )
Christmas eve: chill out, eat and get drunk whilst trying to assemble a child's bike. Start shouting when there appears to be a piece missing, argue with the wife and watch some films
Today: Went to the local market to pick up all the veg ready for Christmas Day. Came home and did the majority of my present wrapping.
Tomorrow: Finish the wrapping (mostly the pretty stuff like putting ribbons or bows on them), then go visit some friends to exchange presents.
Was meant to be going to a Christmas produce market but the weather stopped that plan.
