Thank you for the tag, @kungfury !
Xmas/Holiday Q&A
1. How was your Thanksgiving and what are you thankful for? Much like @kungfury, I am from the UK, notably England, so we don't celebrate Thanksgiving. I am thankful though, for just about everything. As I get older, I realise that there is less to be thankful for in material stuff, but in regards to everything else, I'm just thankful to be here, in 2023, experiencing all of this, good bad, and otherwise
2. Who's putting up a Christmas tree 🎄? Duh, us. Wait until the 13th of December, for the whole twelve days before, twelve days after thing
3. Do you have any family tradition for Thanksgiving and Christmas? Christmas opens up on the 1st of December, before that, all songs are banned, all movies are banned. Then it's all Heck breaks loose, usually with the essential Christmas classic, Home Alone.
4. Your best advice? You guys already know this one, don't eat yellow snow, it is 100% never lemonade flavoured
5. Do you have any holiday charities you donate to? Gotta be honest, no.
6. Your favorite Christmas song? John Lennon: War is Over
7. Your best Christmas present, your choices given or received? I've forgotten most of the presents I've been given, it comes with the age. To be honest, with two girls of seven years of age, I'm more interested in which presents they view as their best presents.
8. Do you have your Christmas shopping done? I'm male, so that's a big resounding NO
9. Fun question something you enjoy during the Holidays? Just the general atmosphere tbth, there is something magical about this time of year. Everything becomes much brighter, you get the pantomimes, the street buskers, the choirs, and everyone seems to just get that little bit, kinder, y'know?
10. Do you have plans for New Years eve? Not yet, but trust me, when I do, it will involve some sort of debauchery and me eating more yellow snow, because, I may be able to give you guys advice, but can never follow it myself.
11. Your goals for the new year 2024? Get a passport sorted so that I can take my family on holiday into somewhere that's NOT the UK
12. Your New Years resolution? Like I'm gonna keep to it!
13. Your favorite hobbies? Reading, writing, making graphics
14. Do you do Christmas cards? No, not since social media
15. Share anything you want from your past holiday's? That is classified information
