You know how normal families always watch a certain film together over the holidays that basically is Christmas for them?

We watch Gremlins. AKA why mum & dad will never, ever get a stairlift. I can't believe they let me watch this when I was little. Oh, wait. Yes I can. I have 'fond' memories of Hammer House of Horror! Anyway, yay Gremlins! (Also; on in the afternoon WTF? I always remember it being a late night thing.)

I got my mum to try a bagel for the first time. She claims there's a bit missing in the middle & said we should take them back to the shop. My mum is turning into Nanny Ogg.

Went Christmas shopping on Oxford Street yesterday. I WILL NEVER BE SO STUPID AGAIN. I am intensely uncomfortable around crowds. I blame this for what happened when a woman bumped right into me. I called her a fucking idiot because it bloody well hurt. I didn't mean for her to burst into tears.

You see how I didn't punch her? I think I've grown.

Your mum had never tried a bagel before? Seriously?

Honest! The first time I tried one was my twenty first birthday. They're available, but not massively common in the UK & Ireland.

D: That makes me sad inside. Bagels are delicious and tasty and should be consumed once a day for breakfast!

Even if breakfast comes it 6pm.

Especially if breakfast comes at 6pm. Mmmmmm bagels.

They're nice! Harry made me eat one. Sort of like doughnuts you can make sandwiches with.

You didn't punch her? Well done!! I'd have thrown a right tantrum!
Every Christmas I always insist we watch *blushes* Muppet Christmas Carol...

Heh, I didn't know it was on today, so I forced the household to watch it a couple of nights ago. But the DVD has one of the songs cut out >:O

Bagels are yum! I guess I've been spoiled living in Los Angeles.

But that does sound like Nanny Ogg. XD

I celebrated Christmas growing up but I can't remember ever having one particular movie the whole family watched. I mean, I used to watch the kiddie stuff but by myself.

But some cable channel is showing A Christmas Story all day on the 24th I think and I do want to tune in for that. "You'll poke your eye out, kid!"

My mum has an addictive personality. She's practically snorting bagels as we speak!

My family never watches movies together, we all have such different tastes. Gremlins is so awesome.

Ok, I really just wanted to comment to say how happy your icon makes me. I always knew the Smurfs were up to something diabolical!

I'm afraid I was very bad & never wrote down who I nicked it from!
