Christmas Eve Dinner - What do you normally do? 08:55 - Dec 21 with 5319 viewsToast_R

I know lots of people who go with a Take Away these days but In my house it’s always been a tradition to home cook the old health conscious Fry Up. The works - Egg, bacon, beans, sausage, mushrooms, fat chips with unwhackable bread & butter on the side. Crazy days.

If I’m at the in laws it’s always boiled bacon, mash with Pease Pudding which I'll tolerate but not that struck on.

We're hosting my wife's family, and their traditional Christmas Eve is spent eating "Party bits" from M&S, a shed load of cheese, and getting drunk in a steady, responsible manner. "Party bits" - stuff you stick in the oven like pigs in blankets, brie and cranberry parcels, prawns in tempura etc.

My father-in-law always commandeers the remote control/music and he's the worst channel hopper in the world. It's insane. Weirdly, the only thing he ever seems to settle on are Border Force Canada/Australia and any of the Bourne films. The cheeky fuc ker will walk into their front room when we're at their house and turn over Fulham games without a word being said. So I expect to either be watching 12 second blips of every programme scheduled for Freeview that night or to be listening to the local traffic updates on Radio Somerset or something whilst eating shit off a baking tray and stuffing a load of Brie down my cakehole, probably whilst discussing the planning saga that's going on with their next door neighbour. Genuinely lovely, lovely people though.

Get p!ssed, bang on about QPR and/or XTC, annoy everyone and put on some old crap video that I find very funny and then fall asleep on my own in the corner. Farting.

All my family plus my Mum and Dad and my brother and sister and their families go to a Curry House. It seems to have almost become a family tradition over the last ten years or so.

Our Christmas Eve involves some food mid afternoon usually at somewhere like TGI"s with the wife and kids followed by the cinema and then home for a couple of drinks before rushing around trying to remember where we've hidden all the kids presents.

Extra mature cheddar......a simple cheese for a simple man

Blimey.

Sparkling wine and scrabble for me this year, with my scrabble loving friends in a lovely old house in the Peak District. Proper rock'n'roll. I hope it snows.

Cheers mate.
I saw XTC a couple of times back then but can't actually remember if it was at the Croydon Greyhound or not. It was a great Punk/New Wave venue as you can see from the line ups for the weeks on that poster.

From years of raving in warehouses and clubs to weekends playing scrabble in the Peak District , it’s funny how 20/30 years changes people captain

Having once temped at Konks Palace I have learned from the master. So for us Xmas Eve has turned into friends, Fizz, Gin, a minimum of at least 16 different party bits including my very own cheese and pineapple hedgehog. Bound to be some smashed avacado in there somewhere. 32 on the accepted guest list.

Poll: Remy - can he play in the playoffs - who's opening post is the best?

Mrs R from Afar has been doing the 5:2 diet for some years now and Monday is usually a "2" day, so that means something healthy. Luckily, she has managed to nail creating a real, tasty meal with very little fat in it, so it will probably be a prawn and veg stir-fry or a veggie curry (with cauliflower, a much-maligned veg). I get to have rice or pasta, she doesn't.

There will be some serious gastronomic blow-outs later in the Yuletide period, though, have no fear! We might have chips mmm chips

Usually it’s a Thai Curry or a full on Ruby

This year I’m told we are having an M&S lasagne and a bottle of Shiraz

Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
