There I was, decent bottle of Burgundy, empty house and just slipped Scrooge with Alastair Sim in the DVD when Mother-in-law and She Who Must Be Obeyed come in. Old witch announces Eastenders and Emmerdale are on. GLW then says "You watch them Mum, he can see it anytime."
It's Christmas Eve! the best and only time to watch this masterpiece!!
Oh well I've still got the wine!!

Save us all...
... from the tyranny of the soaps. Especially tonight.
I'll have to suffer them tomorrow. I adore my dear old mum & ma-in-law, but their addiction to soaps drives me nuts.
Amen to that!
The Mum here never watched them till about 10 years ago, now she's hardlining the three main offenders
My...
commiserations. I'm just about to start watching 'Scrooge'... do you live near Oxford? You can come round and watch it if you like...
Sounds like you're living with the FPOst of Christmas Present!
Stroud, mate. Unfortunately
Stroud, mate. Unfortunately I'm half way through this excellent bottle so I can't ask you to put it on pause for 45 mins as Oxfordshire's finest will be on the prowl tonight!
Oh God Corries just started. Is there no end to this Hell!!
Bad luck mate
I love Christmas. Tomorrow I'm off to spend the day with my new girlfriend's parents. Not sure what to expect, but it should be awesome!
She's upstairs ironing her burqa now.
As well as the wine ...
... do you also have a disc drive that will play DVDs in the PC you're tying on? Not the same as having your feet up in fromt of the telly but possibly a second best.
In theory yes, but
She's as deaf as a post and the volume is at Grand Funk Railroad level!
The whole house is vibrating with the sound of the Mitchells!!
Happy Christmas
Enjoy the wine at least.
I just have!
Bottle 2 opened!!!
Good man!....
I'm waiting for the future mum-in-law to vacate the living room so I can watch tv! I'll be opening the second bottle then!
This place provides
escape from just about everything that life throws at us even Coronation Street. A problem shared and all that, it's not Alastair Sim but this is a top version and very Christmassy.

An Alastair Sim DVD?
Could've been much worse..
A mate of mine has yet to live down the time when wife and mother-in-law returned early from a shopping trip and looked in through the window to see him furiously pleasuring himself to one of his extensive selection of male-interest DVDs. He still can't work out who was the most embarrased. And he also thinks it was very rude of the ma-in-law to tap on the window. Put him right off his stroke, it did.
It would have been even worse
if he was banging one out to Alistair Sim though.
Someone I know.....
fell asleep with, and I'll quote Mrs Doyle from 'Father Ted' here, 'his lad in his hand'! His mother woke him the next morning!
My mate Justin..
Could have wanked for Britain in his youth. He should have gone blind in his mid-twenties. Anyway. Even after marriage and children, he always used to like to relax in a gentlemanly fashion prior to retiring. His wife eventually broke it to him that he was maybe a little too old for that sort of thing when his daughters complained to their mother of coming downstairs on a Saturday morning for three weeks on the trot to find daddy sound asleep in his favourite chair with an empty bottle of red beside him and a flaccid penis in his hand.
The onanist entertains...

My quote of the....
year, 'he always used to like to relax in a gentlemanly fashion prior to retiring'. I love it!
