Rare Presto2 Posted December 5, 2020 #10013 Share Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Well Christmas has arrived at the Presto house today. Took hours to put the tree up and all decor but we celebrated with our first Port, mince pies and cream ...oh and a bottle of Prosecco to celebrate the end of the year since the tree was last up! Looks lovely now and looking back to Jan 1st 2020 when I felt so uneasy when taking it down and the year ahead (no idea why at the time but I felt so uneasy) it is good to be well and safe putting it all up again. Not the best year but lots to be thankful for. And we've made some great CC friends on the way 😉 If that makes sense Edited December 5, 2020 by Presto2 13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ann141 Posted December 5, 2020 #10014 Share Posted December 5, 2020 (edited) Who do others think will be voted off in Strictly tomorrow? My favourite dance was by HRVY and Jeanette(I loved Craigs comments about seeing himself in a mirror and changing his name to CRH !) I was disappointed with Bill Bailey again tonight but think Jamie should go. Edited December 5, 2020 by ann141 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
indiana123 Posted December 5, 2020 #10015 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I thought it wasn't quite so good tonight. That could be because there are fewer in it now. I think Jamie too. Changing the subject, I know some of you love your food. Well you probably know this but just in case... I heard and read that gammon cooks well in Coca Cola. I didn't take much notice but today I thought I would try it. I just chucked it in the slow cooker with a medium bottle of Cola and walked away. Well, it was the best gammon we have ever tasted, and I don't think it was coincidence.😄 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wowzz Posted December 5, 2020 #10016 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Agree about Jamie, but JJ ( strangest Charleston ever) and Bill must be in danger as well. How sad am I, a man of mature years talking about Strictly ! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Jamie should go, they were poor this week and he is the most irritating person when Claudia talks to them but I suspect that if it comes down to a choice between him and Bill Bailey the judges will choose Jamie. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham. You are lucky, I have just been outside and our garden thermometer is registering 3° C. I think that we should move house, where we are now we are high up ( lovely views over the city) but if we drive 2 miles down to the town it is usually a couple of degrees warmer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that it is rarely about the dancing, I love the show but over the years I have noticed that the public vote keeps the most undeserving dancers in because they are either popular or are getting a sympathy vote. In my opinion JJ should have gone long ago but he is still there because he is getting a sympathy vote and I think that Bill is popular with the public. Maisie is an example of this, earlier in the series she was in the bottom two several times despite being one of the best dancers and was saved by the judges she was obviously unpopular with the public. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
