I might be lucky enough to get a work call and have to go in. I'm sorry about your OH Sparkysdad, Can you not go with him?

Have you no family to spend it with Angel?

I really don't have anyone lol. My mum and dad disowned me, I have one other relative who sends letters to me every now and hten. but she is all the way over in Papua Newguinea translating the bible into native speak. I never see her at all. She's as nutty as a fruit cake. You get used to being on your own and I think other people being around might actually irritate me. Still It might be nice to have someone to pull the cracker with. It's a bit boring on your own.

That's really nice of you!

I'll pull a virtual cracker with you too its so sad that you'll be alone at christmas and the same goes to you sparkydad. We could have a little party on here on xmas day for members who are alone i'm happy to come on for a bit if only to escape my OH's parents for a while they drive me barmy

I'm on call, but if I am around and no one needs my services I'll pop in for a bit of a party. Actually the more I think about it the happier the thought makes me.

I wonder if anyone has invented a machine that single people can pull a cracker on their own. Something like a holder with a clothes peg or two at one end and you clip the cracker into it and then when you pull it there would be some kind of resistence to it so that you dont just pull the cracker out of the holder it pulls back so that it goes bang.

When you see me on dragons den making my fortune, remembr where you read about it first!!

I'll try it out for you!

Trying to pull a cracker on your own is difficult ..I know i've tried it.Did it one year and ended up falling off the chair last time I buy decent ones.....they were so tough, when it did seperate I went with it. I was in hysterics for hours.
I too will be on my lonesome this christmas, apart from my two best mates of course (1 yr old border terriers). To be honest I'm not a bah humbug but i cannot bl***y wait. Peace and quiet.
