Sending out the pre-order menu for a Christmas lunch that I'm organising with the in-laws (all 10 of em) and getting stupid fuckin questions back like -
"Can you ask if we can order the chicken and fish n chips off the weekday menu please?"
Just choose one of the 8 starters, 8 mains off the Christmas menu and whether you want an afters or not ffs

Yes there's a different option... you can f*** off (thanks Frankie Boyle...)
I f*ckin love Christmas, and people doing it early should make no difference to me, but here I am, all generally annoyed.
People think I am a right scrooge because it annoys me too. But like you, I actually love Christmas - starting it eight weeks in advance stops it from being "special" to me. Two weeks before is plenty.
Come on guys. It's not Christmas until Noddy Holder says so!

Just generally people who don't appear to understand how a set menu works... "Can I have X instead of Y?". Buffoons.

I get a bit annoyed at restaurants with the advance ordering tbf. It all depends on what side I woke up on, today I might fancy soup of the day, tomorrow prawn cocktail, f*ck knows what in 3 weeks time!

I can eat anything off any menu at any given time. Suppose I'm lucky in that sense

If you were staying at home for Christmas dinner wouldn't you have to decide what you were having in advance anyway, mate (shorter timescale, but the principal is the same)?

The principle is the same to a point yes.
However a restaurant has considerably more storage space than the average domestic home and can thus offer more options. As a customer paying out your hard earned surely you want to buy what you fancy at the time if there are more attractive options available.

I’m going to the Bickley Arms Christmas Day for lunch. They offered the option online to preorder. I agree with you about not knowing what you want in advance and normally I wouldn’t bother to. But being a vegetarian it’s probably wise for me to Christmas time especially. It would be bloody miserable if they had to substitute my choice with double sprouts.

Not in the spirit of the thread I know but I think the answer is that restaurants tend to have set sittings on Christmas day, so their staff can have at least a little bit of time with their family. This means that they have to serve maybe 80 meals at more or less the same time. They may have space (or they may not) but they don't have enough chefs or stoves to prepare 80 different meals to be served at the same time. Naturally they pay their staff more to work on Christmas day, so knowing in advance how much to bulk buy saves any wastage and cooking a job lot helps keep the costs down for the punter as well.

I was more referring to eating out in general, at work we have a lot of pre booked lunches for example.
I get it principle, it’s more in the spirit of the thread that I’m moaning, similar to Gribbo, I’ll eat anything at anytime, I’m a 20 stone geeza inside a 13 stone body that sometimes fancies Fillet steak but other times fancies lasagne, I’d rather choose on the day!
Castore sending me repeated emails advertising their latest offers in casual wear, none of it in any way being Charlton related, an f’ing liberty as far as I’m concerned.
I contacted them via their contact link and told them what I thought of them and to get out of our club ASAP.😤

They’re not pansies, the ones they’re referring too who are diving on the floor are pretending to be hurt to get others booked, amazing this needs explaining.
Also, from someone who’s played his whole life I rarely come off without cuts and bruises, and now I’m in my mid 30s, all manner of injuries including torn hamstrings, permanent ligament damage, tendinitis in my ankle and several broken bones.

And what sort of terrine is it? Do you think you can have that, but with the roll from the soup?
Then lemon tart for pudding, cheers.

Though now I've finished it and CAN hear them, I wish I had another bag
Heard just about every one in the book this morning
"Football players are a bunch of pansies" ✊️💦
"I don't want to waste my time watching a bunch of over paid prima donnas kicking around a bag of air" ✊️💦
"Rolling about on the floor coz of a chipped nail" ✊️💦
"You should watch a proper sport, rugby" ✊️💦
