Christmas day. What are your plans, family or away in the motorhome.

[Mr porky]

After the Hereford rally we had a mission to find somewhere for our Christmas day lunch as we are travelling from the northwest down to the south coast to catch a ferry to northern Spain. (When Brittany ferries release the December dates)
I had booked the camc site in Cirencester arriving on Christmas eve but we needed to choose a restaurant for Christmas day.
Sorted.
We have now booked "The Fleece" in the centre of town after a lovely meal was had the other night.
We did have an open invite to his sisters but wanted to get down country for our ferry.

 

[Langtoftlad]

Ignore it as much as is humanly possible

 

[headlight]

Away in the van for Xmas and New Year in the UK.
Hopefully this year we won't be stuck in a flood for 5 and a half hours coming back like last year

 

[Kannon Fodda]

The fleece said I was the last booking and they are fully booked on Christmas day now, unless someone wants to pay for me and phil and I can wangle a bigger table
It's only £110 per person.

Now we know why it's called the Fleece

 

[10tenmen]

We are staying at Wortley hall Nr Sheffield and visiting family to be fed

We've not "done" Christmas day for years. For us it's just another day to get through whilst being told we "should" be celebrating some obscene intake of far too much food.

We don't "do" birthdays either. We buy things we want/need when we want/need them.)

Do we feel hard done by? Do we heckaslike (that could be Yorkiespeak btw).

We live our lives to the best of our abilities, daily. One day a year that "should" be a special day, means nothing to us. We don't need telling when to celebrate

To be fair we used to do all the singing and dancing. We try to be in the sun for Christmas but it's not going to happen unless we fly and thats not an option this year.
So it's blighty for Christmas and hopefully the costas for new year

 

[busbuddy]

We spent last xmas at home just chilling out after a hard year....then found out that all the people on the marina on xmas day congregate in the bar for a bring food and get free drinks event, didnt know anything about it
Not going to miss out this xmas

 

[BillandHelen]

Having had all our 3 children and their partners and 5 grandkids last year at home ( absolutely wonderful ) they are all off to other parents this year. So Helen and I are off cruising with “Fred” from Liverpool to the Canaries and Lisbon. Xmas at sea, which should be fantastic and New Year fireworks in Lisbon. Xmas jumper selected!!

Xmas in Stoke with stepson & his wife, thereafter heading south through France to Spain ending up in Oualidia in Morocco sometime mid to late January. Still looking for a good beach fishing spot in Morocco. Sea is too wild at Oualidia. Several of us tried it there last year & gave up.

 

[BikerGraham]

Spain again

The kids will sort themselves out

At my expense of course

Canterbury C&C site 23rd to 26th ferry booked (only £104.50) hopefully then Benidorm for a few weeks if I can find a campsite.

You could be in Spain in a carpark with me drinking cheap Spanish wine.


Think I'll be in Spain till after the 3 Kings celebrations and then In Morocco

Last Christmas I spent on a deserted beautiful beach in La Manga.

Just been looking camp sites up in Benidorm and only 4 pitches available non of which are very appealing so maybe have to have a re think.

Northernraider ... are you related to 'Stretch Armstrong' by any chance ... your arms don't half look long in that photo!

 

[Minxy]

Nearly forgot, hopefully we'll be in Spain at Puerto de Mazarron - last time we were stuck in the UK waiting for our camper's slave cylinder to be sorted so couldn't get away until February, don't want that again!

 

[Manic]

We will be in Suffolk
