My school friend and i (We're both in our 30's not still at school) are taking our children to the beach and having fish and chips and spending 2p's in the arcade :j while our husbands build my god daughters trampolin. When we get back their will be a little wine and the odd beer for the husbands (If they build the trampolin correctly) and possibly a take away too, not very money saving but, fun and i love spending time with our friends.

OH and I are cooking Christmas dinner for 13 on Christmas Eve - we did this last year and had lots of our friends round for our own mini-christmas.

So we're having turkey and all the trimmings

Bit scary cooking for so many though, especially in a small 2 bedroom flat! We have to borrow next doors dining table to make ours big enough!

It's my birthday on Christmas Eve - am going out for lunch with OH and then to my Mums, and she's cooking lovely traditionally chicken curry! My favourite x

We will be having a buffet so the girls and visitors can help themselves. I've bought a few of asda's party foods but will also be making some, and will also cook a pot of curry.

Hello :hello:

There's a thread over on the Christmas board of everyone's festive menus so you'll definately find some inspiration! We usually have gammon, parsley sauce and mash with some other veg.

I was going to do Beef Bourgignon ? with a jacket potato and veg. I think I'll change to this as it sounds lovely!

Just been and put it on my Tesco order! messy Christmas. I note I made a mistake and put messy instead of merry, but I've decided to leave it!

As this thread has fallen off the front page of Old Style, I've moved it over to the Christmas board to see if you can get more replies.
