Default Unusually quiet

It's unusually quiet at work today and the streets are virtually deserted.

Where is everyone?

It's Christmas, Paul. All the shops are closed on Christmas Day.

Mods: Please move this thread into the Christmas Jokes thread.

I'm here spending Christmas alone as usual.
The local Indian shop is open, so I'll put some trousers on
and buy a can of soup and maybe a couple of beers

Merry Christmas!

It is your avatar dude. You mean you didn't know? Surely you knew what your avatar was? Of course you did, you're just pulling my leg, right?

For those that don't know, google for "The Wrong Trousers"

Yeah, it is pretty subtle. The first clue I had Christmas was coming was when the Muzak(t) at work started playing Christmas music the day after Thanksgiving.

Way too early if you ask me....
