Firstly, apologies for the delay in getting the thread up... been a hectic few days. Took the kids to the Lakes for a few days in the run up to Christmas and came back early this afternoon to a list of jobs a mile long. Sadly there was no snow just an awful lot of rain but good fun was had by all and now we're home, the kids have their Christmas Eve box and are about to get bathed and their new PJs on ready for Santa making an appearance later this evening (provided they've made the list of who's been good)!
A festive ale I quite like is the eternally miserable 'Bah Humbug' by the Wychwood brewery who also make the likes of Hobgoblin. Given that I'm generally a miserable old sod it's probably quite appropriate really.
To follow that off I will start us off with THE greatest Christmas song of all time which is of course Fairytale of New York... anyone who disagrees with that will be banned from this thread for a week and sent to the naughty step .
Other than that I'd just like to wish each and every one of you a very merry Christmas and that you have a great time with your nearest and dearest. If I may also just ask that when indulging in a festive drink or two we all raise a glass to the very sadly missed @bear66.
Merry Christmas one and all.
PS a special shout out to @FatCat who is this week going to indulge in some decent beer for a change - hope you enjoy it young fella
