    Christmas Day eating out or at home...

    for the first time in my life I will be having Christmas dinner at a restaurant, with the wife and other members of her family. Hopefully it will be stress free, no prep, no basting and most importantly no clearing up afterwards.

    What is everyone else doing?
    Never has a man been heard to say on his death bed that he wishes he'd spent more time in the office.

    I'l be having a nice walk on the common. Hopefully it will snow.
    While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

      A roast is not difficult to cook: its just preperation
      Growing old is mandatory
      Growing up is optional

            I have always eaten at my house or the inlaws and to be honest i reckon next year i am gonna eat out. the only thing that worries me is the service when ever i have been out just before christmas the service is generally poor due to the amount of people they are trying to get through the door but other than that i reckon it would make a nice change, and what it costs for christmas dinner and all the trimmings i reckon its probably no more expensive

                  Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                    Out at friends all day, front door key under the mat. Safe behind the picture in the hallway ( left 22 right 120 left 66 right 80)
