Going out for food later with housemates and others.
Then drinking port 'til I can't feel feelings anymore. Tomorrow going home for Christmas, might go to Fulham (as in the pub afterwards, I'd rather kill myself than go to the game) if I get back in time/can be arsed.
Although before all that I'm going to Richer Sounds to try and blag that the big crack on my TV's screen happened by itself and get a replacement.

I shall then retire to the Shore Bar, where I shall have some fine food and wine, and then to my local where I shall get completely wombled and pretend I haven't just spent the best part of 500 sheets on what are, essentially, a glorified pair of shoes. Saturday, finish off Christmas shopping. Sunday, watch football and drink beer.

Why send cards?
Christmas cards are one of the most ridiculous wastes of money ever imagined. Other cards are bad enough (birthday, engagement, etc) but Christmas cards get sent to a lot of people all at once and invariably contain identical messages: "Dear you, Merry Christmas, Love Me xxx".

I am perfectly able to give people Christmas wishes in person, if geography prevents me from doing this I will call them on the telephone. STOP WASTING MONEY.
