When it comes to Christmas crackers are you a tad competitive?
Are you a sore loser if you don't get that snap?
Defence technology experts have found the perfect technique to ensure you win the Christmas cracker every time
Step 1: Hold your end of the cracker at a lower angle to your opponent
Step 2: Use a firm , two handed grip on your end
Step 3: When it's time to pull, make a slow steady pull rather than a fast tug
Lastly, don't be too aggressive! You may compromise the end of your cracker!
Apply a 2 handed grip to nab that cracker
An etiquette coach has also given guidance on how to correctly time your cracker shenanigans.
According to a "social behaviour expert," Liz Brewer, crackers should be opened at the end of the main course, or after the dessert.
It's not polite to lean over guests to pull a cracker, and apparently, it's not appropriate to wear your hat away form the table.
Finally, always congratulate the victor. Don't be a sore loser- especially if you lost your end to a little one!
