I thought I would do a bit of a twist on the usual blogger tag and get my cousins to answer the questions with me so- the answers in green are me, Imogen. Red is Trina, the youngest. Blue is Beccy, the oldest. Okay!

Favourite Christmas movie?
Elf. The Holiday. The Nightmare before Christmas.
Are you on the Naughty list or the Nice list?
Nice. Naughty. Nice.
Is your Christmas tree real or fake?
Real. Obviously real. As real as a tree can be.
Hands down, what’s your all-time favorite holiday food and holiday sweet treat?
Potatoes and Mince Pies. Roast potatoes, parsnips, erm- Pigs in blankets and Christmas nuts. Potatoes and Buche de Noel.
Be honest: do you like giving gifts or receiving gifts better?
Giving, I like wrapping things. Giving, it’s nice knowing people appreciate what you get them, but it’s also nice getting them. Giving, but I don’t like watching people open them.
What would be your dream place to visit for the holiday season?
New York. Yeah, New York. Somewhere snowy on the top of a mountain in a little chalet.
Are you a pro-present wrapper, or do you fail miserably?
Pro, absolutely. Fail, I just end up with a mass of cello tape. Pro, obviously.
Most memorable Holiday moment?
The thing- the time when Rory, Rory’s one job- You had one job! -Was to take the ham out of the oven when we all went out and he forgot. And then he did it twice! When Uncle David was really really drunk dressed up as Santa Clause to deliver the presents to the stockings and he tripped over the bed! Probably playing Polly Pocket on the landing.
What made you realize the truth about Santa?
I can’t remember finding out, but I’m sure it was a horrible day. Well I found a photocopied version of my list to Santa covered in Argos references and Amazon references of where my mum was going to buy all my presents! And I stormed to their bedroom and confronted them! I don’t remember, I think I was told at school- but that might have been the Easter bunny.
Have you ever had a White Christmas?
Yes. Well- dirty grey.
Where do you usually spend your holiday?
Home. Here. Here.
Do you open any presents on Christmas Eve?
No. No, that would ruin Christmas. Yeah, that would ruin Christmas.
What makes the Holidays special for you?
Family. Everyone together, jolly food, cats. Yeah- Family.
Can you name all of Santa’s reindeer?
*Attempts several times* If there’s 8 then yes, if there’s 12 then no.
What holiday tradition are you looking forward to most this year?
Food. Oh yeah food. *distracted by the nuts she’s trying to eat* Can’t get my nut out. Er- Food?
Do you like to stay in your PJ’s, or dress up for Christmas?
Pj’s- then dressed up- then Pyjamas about an hour later.
Have you ever made a snowman?
I think we made a small one. Yeah, the year of the grey snow.
It’s Christmas time. What are you reading?
The Last Runaway by Tracey Shaveleir- Shaverly- Something. Nothing really- I was reading a book about the Holocaust. Very Christmassy.
White lights, or colored lights?
White. Coloured. White.
When do you usually know and feel that it’s finally the holidays?
The Christmas adverts. Erm- all the christmas lights, the music, the coke advert. The frantic clean-up when you guys are coming up.
