    Ah, cheers. I took more not necessarily Christmas themed when I was there. New York is such a photogenic city! My poor Instagram didn't know what hit it!

    I hope you uploaded the whole lot of them to Instagram.
    They're definitely what you call "Instagram goals". 😊

    Christmas carols in Christchurch cathedral, say that 4 times really fast, were really special. Kudos to whom told us about the tickets going on sale.

    Does anyone ever look at their Christmas tree and think 'WTF, there's a massive tree in my house!'

    Sometimes I think it's a bit strange. I love it, but it's a very strange custom!

    Work Christmas drinks start at 12 today in a tacky Irish bar. My OH's work Christmas do, which I have to attend, is a 8pm in a swanky venue. I am so excited about my christmas drinks I just need to take it handy.

    I hope not to be on the naughty list tomorrow.

    I do think if all the lights in my house were visible from the sky, I'd have more planes trying to land than Heathrow.

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    It looks like this house might be worth seeing if you are in the general area! (Palmerstown, Dublin)

    A Dublin man pulled out all the stops with his Christmas lights this year for the loveliest reason

    (Do we have a thread for notably decorated houses/buildings?)

    Well done! That's an amazing feeling. (I'm a bit behind this year!)

    My plan for tonight is to order a takeaway on the bus home, get straight into my jammies and watch a Christmas film. Trying to decide between Elf, Love Actually and Home Alone.

    I had the majority of stuff bought before heading to Dundrum last night, and all of that stuff is wrapped.

    My plan for tonight is to watch the Leinster match and try get the rest of my presents wrapped, and write the cards!

    I have all presents that I've bought wrapped, but still need to buy a few last bits so will head into town early tomorrow morning (hopefully...:pac:), meeting my friend for brunch at 12.30 so hopefully will get one or two things done before I meet her, and then some shopping afterwards also. Was thinking of getting the dine in for 2 for myself and mum then. I hope to be home for 4.....

    My plan for tonight is eating buckets of ice cream and mince pies and watching one of those cheesy Hallmark Christmas movies.

    I love that everyone is having a Christmassy night or weekend. It's so close now!

    I just had a Rose for the first time in years. It was DISGUSTING.

    Toto, that gave me a good laugh.

    I was looking at the tubs of Roses earlier on in Tesco and just for a second I considered getting one but then I remembered how they taste and so I passed.

    I reckon I'll go for a box of Lindt chocolates or Ferrero Rocher or something this year.

    I was starving so I decided to give it a go and by the time I was finished it I didn't feel hungry. That's how disgusting it was. :D Glad you decided not to them. They're GROSS. Ferrero Rocher is a good call. I got them last year and enjoyed every last one.

    I ended up watching Nativity! Oh my God, what a cute little film that is. The kids in it are just brilliant.
