He's responding to Knit Chic, idiot. He won't see your post...

You will learn that those who feel the need to announce/threaten
someone is killfiled are those who are least likely to do so.

Idiot. He's responding to what I say, regardless of whose post he sees it
in.

They think it's supposed to hurt, too. Hence, the word "plonk". :-)

Yeah, it's not a bad idea, is it? He'll probably keep on talking
though -- some people have to have the last word...

Talking to yourself is not a Good Thing, Doug.

Which has nothing to do with the fact that he has your address in his
killfile. And now, so do I -- I rarely killfile anyone, but you're what
is known as an asshole troll; waste of time. Bu-bye...

I'm coming in late, so I hope I have snipped this correctly....

Because we don't celebrate Thanksgiving in NZ, Christmas is a huge
event. I don't know anyone who makes a feature out of Christmas
breakfast. Those who are pulled between relatives might have a brunch
(combination breakfast and lunch) then a dinner (evening) or a
festive midday meal followed by heading off for another event at
rellies in the evening.

Personally, I have always put on (or attended) a big midday meal.
Reality is it's served about 1-2pm.

I agree it's too much to do both. One year I planned a big Christmas
dinner as it's hot here at Christmas and I wanted to try not eating a
big meal in the middle of the day. It was a flop. The day dragged out
waiting for the main event. I've never tried that again.

Perhaps you didn't read the first three lines? Addresses her
audience, then gives two questions.

Yes, those might be viewed as qualifying sentences. But, to me, they did not
change the meaning of what came after. This is turning into a writing
critique class, Interesting, isn't it?

On Christmas Eve, Kidzilla, her boyfriend, her mother, and her
step-father usually come over for a meat and cheese tray, rolls to
serve them on, baked beans, and whatever else we happen to think of.
(This is Crash's thing)

We're generally too tired on Christmas morning to do anything other
than sleep in. On Christmas Day, we usually eat leftovers from the
night before.

This year, we should be entertaining my niece and her roommate again.
They had never heard of fondue! We have a sterno unit and an electric
one. Also a tiny crockery one for chocolate. We have a quite small
crockpot that could be used for dessert, too. I have the most amazing
raspberry fondue recipe.

Sounds like a plan. We'll bring our video camera. It's the least we
can do to preserve the moment.
