Who's doing them then?

I can't have too much chocolate now and, alcohol does me a mischief now so, I can't have some nice flavoured miniatures but, I do like a cuppa so, the missus got me this one 🙂
..... There's some that I'm not too sure on. Some that I've heard of but never tried before. The first one was good today. It was a nice thoughtful thing from her (she's like that 👍)- I'm a happy chap with this 👍😃

I cant have chocolate either.. but still got a chocolate one safe in the knowledge my son will eat them all anyway 😅
Well, at least someone will enjoy it mate 👍
I do like chocolate but, I wanted to be off the Metformin and, now that I am, I'm doing my best to be a good boy and keep my level in check the old fashioned way. The alcohol thing is a shame though - I did like a nice rum or bourbon but, I had just 1 3.4% beer with dinner a week ago and, it kicked of the tremor in my left hand 🙄
Ah well, I do like a cuppa so, happy days 👍🙂
 
Looks a good calendar ☕ l have a M&S chocolate one 😁
 
Kinder advent calendar, got it from BnM for my granddaughter and ended up getting one for myself, it's the 1st December and I've eaten up to the 15th. They are amazing and I'm a childish 45 year old according to my partner LOL.
 
I’ve got a where’s wally advent calendar.
The numbers on the little doors are a pain to see.
 
Bought the girlfriend the Yankee Candle one this year, needed some brownie points. Bought empty boxes for the daughter and filled with assorted K-pop/Anime/Lindor/Chupachups. I got a Cadbury Biscoff one, nice.
 
None for me, but Mrs Berber gives one to each of our daughters and DIL. For the past few years, we hand deliver before 1st Dec. This year it is the M&S cosmetics one and we have just got back from Oslo. My advent treat was the first (proper) glogg wine and pepperkake biscuits. Also the fabulous bread and pastries from a local bakery, cinnamon bolle for me and solbrod for Mrs Berber, it is a flat Danish with egg custard in the middle. God Jul!

😯 Cheat , no more to the 16th now 😆
 
I had a Pact coffee one last year. They're great for trying new styles of coffee, but after about a week you realise you liked the one you'd already chosen as your daily cup.
