This Christmas was the first restrictionless Christmas since the beginning of the pandemic and I, like many parents I’m guessing, tried to make it extra special. And I know for a fact I won’t be putting quite as much of an effort next year. These days, and this year especially, it felt like there was […]

It wouldn’t be the Christmas season unless we tuned into some of our favourite classic family movies and Mrs Doubtfire is one of the best. With classic one-liners, Mrs. Euphegenia Doubtfire was a hip granny who could hip-hop, be-bop dance till you drop and yo-yo made a wicked cup of cocoa. Underneath it all, it […]

FANS were transfixed by a lip-smacking thriller – then wondered if Carlo Ancelotti had lip-swelling filler.
Viewers were open-mouthed in astonishment at the Real Madrid boss’s bottom lip in a press conference following a 3-3 draw at Rayo Vallecano.
Many fans reckon the legendary ex-Chelsea chief must have had botox treatment or an operation
One posted: “What’s wrong with your lip? Have you had surgery?”
Another said: “I’ve been giggling about Ancelotti‘s lip filler since I woke up”
A third wrote: “Can someone explain to me what Ancelotti has done to his lips?”
The unexpected debate about Ancelotti’s facial features came after Jude Bellingham netted for a sixth LaLiga match in a row.
The last player to do that was Real icon Karim Benzema eight years ago.
But the draw means Ancelotti’s men remain a point behind neighbours Atletico Madrid and leaders Barcelona.
So one frustrated fan asked: “Why did Ancelotti get lip filler. This is not a serious club.”

Spanish outlet mundodeportivo say his large lips were due to an allergy.
But it didn’t save the former Bayern Munich and Everton boss from less than generous jibes.
Plenty of fans on social media made up their own mind over the cause of the apparent swelling.
One wrote: “Ancelotti has punctured his lips or is it just me.”
Another said: “Ancelotti has been more concerned about his lips than about today’s game.”
That was particularly unkind as Real recovered from trailing 2-0 to lead 3-2 through Federico Valverde, Bellingham and Rodrygo.
But Isi Palazon rescued a valuable point for second-bottom Vallecano.
So for Ancelotti it wasn’t a case of all’s swell that ends swell.
MCDONALD’S customers have just days left to try a rare menu item before it’s axed.
The home of the Golden Arches stunned customers when it said the Grimmace Shake would return to menus this December.
The milkshake – which is inspired by the chain’s purple mascot – landed in UK restaurants for the first time in August but was only around for a week.
It was already a fan favourite in the States and went viral when it was launched across the pond.
The sweet treat is purple and features a blueberry-flavoured syrup blended with a creamy milkshake base.
It is also the first time McDonalds has mixed things up with its flavours – which are typically just strawberry, chocolate and vanilla.
It is currently available to buy across McDonald’s 1,450 stores this winter, and the drink has been raved about by customers.
In a post online, one diner said: “Managed to get one after missing out last time. It was delicious.”
While another said: “Tried it for the first time just now, I’m not a fan of blueberry, but this was delicious.”
But customers who are keen to get their hands on a shake will need to act quickly.
That’s because Maccies is pulling the product from menus on December 24, giving fans just nine days to get their hands on one.
A medium Grimace shake will set you back £2.69 – or £2.99 if you want to upgrade to a large.
This is compared to the usual cost for a regular medium McDonalds milkshake which is £1.99 or £2.19 for a large.
However, bear in mind that prices can vary depending on which McDonald’s store you are visiting.
McDonald’s has treated fans to a number of new menu items over the past few months.
Last month it launched a new Chilli Double Cheeseburger, which landed on its saver menu for £2.49.
It features two 100% British and Irish beef patties, two slices of cheese, onions, jalapenos, pickles and spicy relish in a toasted bun.
Meanwhile, McDonald’s also launched its brand new Christmas menu, which featured a never-before-seen Terry’s Chocolate Orange Pie.
You can check out the full festive menu, which is available in stores now, below:
Did you know that you can end up being charged more based on which branch of McDonald’s you choose to eat at?
There can be up to a 30p price difference in a Big Mac meal at restaurants which are just two miles away from each other, The Sun previously found.
Another way to cut back spending at McDonald’s is by ordering from the Savers menu or by taking advantage of its ‘3 for £3’ deal when it lands in stores.
It is also worth bearing in mind that McDonald’s offers a discount on your next order if you fill out a survey online after visiting its stores.
These can be found on the back of any receipt you get at McDonald’s.
If you’re planning on taking a trip to McDonald’s, you’ll want to know where your nearest branch is.
The chain has a restaurant locator tool on its website you can use to find your nearest one – and check what time it opens.
Bear in mind that McDonald’s serves breakfast every day until 11am.
After that, it switches to the normal menu, serving meals such as burgers, chicken nuggets and more.
