I could make the name place cards if you'd like...but I don't want be responsible for deciding who sits beside who .

And carols? We need a choirmaster/mistress with a list of carols/songs for when the music falls silent (or for when I have pulled the plug on it )

games, silverdarling... you were my number one!
Wildmissus, just go for it. We could move to a different place for each course, to make it interesting (I'll leave that one with you...)

I can was/dry pots pans and load/unload dishwashers. Haven't broken too much in the past! Can probably help with the potato peeling too.

Those sprouts will only jut be ready by the 25th you know

There has to be Charades SD!
And that game where you have a name pinned on yr forehead and have to guess who you are..
Its a shame we dont have more male guests or we could play Postman's Knock ;0) and Strip Poker!
Has anyone got Sing Star so we can have singoffs?

I know Annie ..i am anxious too as to whether the sprouts will be done in time

Thanks for volunteering to join me on pan duty..not like @Callyanna who has just turned gangster and decided she's doing the tree...too posh for pots eh!

Ps we will make sure we hide a few bottles of vino in the kitchen to keep us going while we apply the elbow grease..

I am volunteering for wardrobe mistress if that's ok x

This is great! Does it mean we're coming in Fancy Dress? Drilakila,do you think you could make me a ( rather large) Sugar Plum Fairy outfit?

A question about the stuffing, as it's my task (and let's not forget massaging the birds.....) How many birds do I have to plan ?

So,

Have i got the music job? Am ready and waiting to take requests please dont leave me out its cold out there!!

@angie090465 start preparing that playlist... it's going to be fab!

Can I watch the little people while dinner is being prepared, make sure none of them fall into the gravy pot, that kind of thing? I have to borrow other people's grandchildren for probably the next few years, to get my "fix" of the little darlings.

@angie090465 start preparing that playlist... it's going to be fab!

Yeahhhhh thank you so much Penny!

Playlist being written down as we speak

Any special request please send!

@Manderley re the birds, allow 2 per time zone, so that's 48... make it 50 to allow plenty. We can always make curry on Boxing Day with leftovers.
What kind of stuffing are you doing?

@WendyJane good thinking there.. and also keep an eye out for older folk who will be most welcome, such as @silverdarling's Mum. You may have your work cut out with all those wee folk.

I see that Wendyjane is looking after the little ones (in the absence of grandchildren), but I was thinking of doing a Treasure Hunt with chocolate money for the littlies, for after the main course so they vanish while we linger over the alcomoholic flaming pudding. What do you think?

We can do fancy dress, yes. i think I will be Morticia Adams lol. Anyone else need a costume? Or some clothes taking in perhaps?? x

Any special request please send!

All music requests, however cheesy to Angie, please.
Can I have 'I believe in Father Christmas' please, as my cheesy offering.

@Golarne you beat me to it. As long as there isn't too much chocolate money so it makes them sick. I can't clean it up, as it makes me join them. However, run some energy off the little blighters.

@drilakila make me the snow queen, please...
