[Funniebunny]

We have just come back from Nassau.

It has to be Strictly Come Dancing for me.

What is your favourite season - Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter?

I would have to say Spring

[gilld]

Summer - I love the sun.

Do you prefer to be at home or on holiday at Christmas?

[Funniebunny]

I have done both and I would have to say home. This year will be extra special as it is my first with my Fiance living with me. I like to watch the Christmas movies and listen to carols whilst doing dinner. It's just not the same being away unless your in WDW.

What is your favourite Christmas food?

It drives DH mad!!!

What are you having for starter on Xmas Day this year?
We are having either Salmon or Prawn Cocktail. Yummy scrummy, get in my tummy.

[angel659]

Mine is Friends game I own. Its just a question game really. Its great fun, I love Friends and seeing how much I really know is great.

Do you like rollerocasters and if so when is your favourite one? I love coasters, I think my favourite coaster is Nemesis at Alton Towers, although after riding Sheik'ra at Busch Gardens this Chrstmas that might be my new favourite!!

[mandymouse]

My fave rollercoaster is The Hulk

Do you prefer Islands of Adventure or Universal Studios & Why ?? We love IOA for The Hulk, Spiderman and Duelling Dragons

[emmaness]

I would probably have to say Islands of Adventure as there are more rides that I love there and I prefer the theming. Seuss Landing is a stroke of genius! :cloud9:

What's your favourite season and why? Mine is probably Autumn because of the gorgeous colours you get, and it's not too hot, but not too cold either! Oh, and there is a small matter that my birthday occurs in Autumn. :teeth:

Jodie

[mandymouse]

I think I was 14 and we went to see The Life of Brian at the cinema.

Do you have an Advent Calendar for Crimbo ? I don't but the kids will probably have a Cadbury's or Maltesers one

[wilma-bride]

No, unfortunately, I never get bought an Advent calendar (and would feel a bit 'sad' buying myself one). The kids have got at least 3 each though so I may have to help Daniel out with his ;)

If you had £100 right now to spend on anything you like, what would you buy? I would probably treat myself to a really nice outfit to wear to my Christmas party :)

[ely3857]

Some nice sparkley shoes, maybe even twos pairs, 1 red & 1 silver!

Erm,

Roses, Celebrations, Quality street. Miniture heros??? Roses for me.

Jodie

[wilma-bride]

Can I choose the new Cadbury's miniatures, which has chunks of all the different flavour choccies (such as Turkish delight, Mint, Biscuit etc)

If you could spend Christmas anywhere you want in the World, where would it be? For me, I think it would probably be in the middle of the Caribbean on a luxury cruise liner (just like my Dad will be - not that I'm jealous MUCH!!!)

[mandymouse]

I am going to where I'd like to be at Christmas, and that's WDW - woohoo, and I can't wait

[Cyrano]

What's the main thing you really want for Xmas this year?

I would LOVE a trip to WDW, but I think that's out of the question so for me, other than spending a few days relaxing with our families, there are lots of Cd's that I would like, and I would love a detailed map of scotland so I can start planning our trip next year, and a CD player for our new kitchen.

We have some twinkling lights for outside, but they're nothing special

Do you put chocolate decorations on your Christmas tree ? We do, but they don't last long :rotfl:

[fizz13]

I used to but don't bother anymore. Like you said, nobody can wait for Xmas and they get eaten. i remember it was a great game when I was little though to try and steal a choccie and then redo the paper and put it back on the tree empty before my mum realised :rotfl2: She must have known really.

We usually have Christmas dinner around 3pm after a morning of eating chocolate

Do you have a real or fake Christmas Tree ? It's a fake one for me

[gilld]

Both usually one in sitting room, one in conservatory. And a real one growing on the front lawn that we put lights on - a girl after your own heart I think!!!

Following on, when do you open your presents? We open ours when we've cleared away lunch - so about 3pm.

[Tink78]

Depends where we are spending Xmas.
This year we are starting the day off at my brothers, so pressies there in the morning, popping into DH's family so more pressies there, and ending the day at my parents so more pressies there!! Whoopie.

Do you have little extra pressies during Xmas dinner?
We normally spend £5 on each other extra and give out mini pressies before pudding.

[Funniebunny]

No we don't but we will be having a stocking this year with little fun presents in them.

Off topic question.

If you could be a Disney character for the day who would you be and why?

[FizzyPop]

No we dont have turkey as we dont real like it :) We will be cooking Beef, Bacon and Pork :)

Are you doing anything special new years eve?

[fizz13]

I'll be going to a friends' party this year, which is a big deal for me as last year I had an early night (was on a plane to WDW the next morning!), the year before I was heavily pregnant (DS was born 13th Jan), and the year before I had a terrible tummy bug so was curled up in bed again :confused3
This year I am going to make the most of it :banana:

Claire xx

[gilld]

Going on a cruise to the Canaries and Madeira in April, to BCV at WDW in September, and a Caribbean cruise in March 2007 - not booked any further - yet!

Do you make your own Christmas Puddings and Cakes? I make mine from an old Mrs Beeton's Home Management Book - delicious!

[Danauk]

Seen as DH and I host the family Christmas meal we provide the turkey, my mum makes us a cake and my MIL makes us a pudding, so no I personally don't make them but we do eat home made ones.

How many people do you have to cook for on Christmas day? Seen as we are in the middle of the country we have the family over here so we cook for 12!!

[gilld]

Most years it's us, 3 "children" and the In-laws but this year DD2's ex flatmate who is from Thailand, will be joining us so 8. That's 8 for 4 days!

What do you drink with your Christmas Lunch? Although I know it's not really the right drink to "go" with Turkey, we always have Champagne.

[ely3857]

Orange juice probably! Perhaps Vodka Lime & Soda but if I drink in the middle of the day I tend to fal asleep as soon as I sit on the sofa!

[Minniespal]

X-Factor.

Nice warm weather and I could just watch the entertainment on the strip (I love the Bellagio dancing fountains, the gondolas on the Grand Canal at the Venetian, the Volcano at the Mirrage and the Pirate Battle outside the Treasure Island.)

When do you plan on putting your Christmas decorations up? I think I will have to do mine next weekend as we are having our family Christmas early due to our trip and 6 family members going to Australia for Christmas.

Do you deorate the outside of your house for Christmas? We hang a few strings of light above the windows and a wreath on the front door. I perfer the simple is more look!!

[Cyrano]

No, the thought of being up the ladder since our house is on a slope to the harbour is :earseek:

Do you lie in on Christmas morning or are you up early?
Tend to be up no later than 7am :)

[Danauk]

We have the family over so I tend to get up quite early to make sure the house is ready. This Christmas day my friend and I have a massage booked at Saratoga Springs Spa so I might have a small lie in!

Have you ever been out of the country for Christmas? This will be our first year being away from our family at Christmas time.
