I?m sure Sainsbury?s, Morrison?s, Tesco etc will all be doing discounts on crates.


Just be sure to feel a bit guilty about it because the use of alcohol as a loss leader by big chains is contributing to the demise of the local pub.


So to even it out go to the pub on Boxing Day and drink lots.

To be fair, a small band of us have been keeping the CPT open for years now, so I feel I can hold my head up... Besides, if the stupid pubs would stop being so selfish, and open on Christmas day, I'd be in there emptying my wallet!


Which reminds me...


A few years back the then manager of the CPT said to me "I can't believe this man, the one night I get to shut up, everyone's with their families, and I'm sat here on my own. Would rather open up!"... Guess that's the problem when most of the bar staff of London are thousands of miles away from family at crimbo time!

Mmmm, a pain au chocolat for breakfast (eaten on the hop whilst dragging a huge suitcase - trust me, I needed the energy)

A mince pie popped in whole for elevenses (it was tiny - honest)

Mmmm, a rather nice latte presently on the go as I clock watch....

BB, do you eat cream eggs all in one? Respect if you do!


I was always led to believe that the real wow-factor is if she can suck one through a hose-pipe ;-)



Has been a gluttony-free day thus far in the number5 house: Mrs.number5 on nights so asleep, I opted for a final day of racking up credit before the big day - porridge, run, light-lunch. Dull, and very jealous of you all, but means I can feel free to eat a ridiculous amount tomorrow!

    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect 
    • I never said that. Saying I don’t like some of the rhetoric coming from the left doesn’t mean I approve of Farage et al saying that Afghans being brought here to protect their lives and thank them for their service means there is an incalculable threat to women.    Anything to score a cheap point. It’s pretty pathetic.
