That’s right! FUK!! We’re off to France and the U.K. for Christmas!!! And thought it best to leave off the C for Christmas from the title…we will never stoop to that sort of toilet level humour. Although Lea’s first choice of title was WC…for White Christmas.  #literaltoilethumour I kind of wanted: Party from UK to Europe…but PUKE doesn’t feel nice rolling off the tongue. Or UKX…for UK: Xmas and X-Europe.

So follow us (if you’re not sick of it by now) as we spend two weeks drinking by fireplaces over the silly season in France and the UK!
