Simon (Highwayman) (highwayman) | 4276 comments I would quite like a book with a Christmas theme for December.

Any suggestions?

Jim | 21828 comments It's probably worth digging out the The Pickwick Papers

The section, 'Christmas at Dingley Dell' probably does a lot to define our idea of Christmas


Rosemary (grooving with the Picts) (nosemanny) | 8597 comments Well obviously A Christmas Carol!
The Snowman by Raymond Briggs, not the Jo Nesbo one!
Skipping Christmas By John Grisham
The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe Sort of!
The Christmas Train don't remember much about this at all although I only read a few years ago.
Santa's Christmas Eve Blues by Douglas Lindsay one of my favourite authors at the mo. Just read it last week. It's a shorty and rather good fun.


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Bah humbug.

The only good thing about Christmas this year will be sharing a curry and champagne with a rather charming man.

There better be champagne, dammit!


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments I will probably be spending christmas itself snuggled up on my couch with a good book and a bottle of wine. My big family visit will be on the 3rd and 4th of January and then I hope a couple of days with Dave and his charming fluffy bunny.


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments I'm coming to Ireland.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments When?
Do I have to clean the house?


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Shovel off the top layer, anyway.


Gingerlily - The Full Wild | 34228 comments The spiders are scared.

You're meeting Jim this Christmas? Does Dave know?


Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Now that'd be fun.

In fact, I think we should all meet in Biggleswade on Christmas Eve.

But I have homed them and loved them and cherished them for years! Why should I turn them away now??

Karen Lowe | 1338 comments Last year I suggested we sprayed the cobwebs with glitter. It'd look very festive.

Re books - my mum's recommended John Grisham's Skipping Christmas - she thoroughly enjoyed it, made her laugh

R.M.F. Brown | 2124 comments I'd recommend Treasure Island. It's got a map with an X in it, and seeing as Xmas contains an X, there's a connection...bwa ha ha :)

Jan Hurst-Nicholson (janhurst-nicholson) | 347 comments I'm saving my DVD of Mrs Brown's Christmas Special to watch on Christmas Day.
