Anyone got the shopping sorted yet? The misses and I are going this saturday and hoping to get all sorted in one swoop. Few bits and bobs picked up already.

The kids. Think of the kids. It's santa shopping we're doing. Get it done now and not caught up in the rush in December.

I've started stockpiling beer and wine. Does that count?

This is very Christmassy and very easy to make




Hot Butterscotch

50ml blended whiskey/whisky

120-150ml boiling hot water

1 tbsp spiced butter*

● Warm a mug or Irish-coffee cup with boiling hot water. Discard the water. Add the whisky, boiling hot water and spiced butter. Stir until the butter melts. Garnish with a cinnamon stick.

*To make the spiced butter: combine 250g butter and 250g brown sugar in a mixing bowl with one heaped teaspoon of allspice, one of cinnamon, a small pinch of ground clove and a teaspoon of good vanilla extract. Blend thoroughly with a fork. Press the mixture into a ramekin, or wrap it in cling film and shape into a stick of butter. Refrigerate. This mixture keeps well for two weeks

I was in a toy shop on Saturday and the Christmas shopping was in full swing. Enough to give you a headache.

If you are one of those Christmas haters probably not the thread for you tbf.
If you think Christmas shouldn't be talked about until December- probably should avoid said thread until December.

As long as you drink it all well before Christmas and have to bring in emergency supplies.
