Oh Christmas, I just can't wait to hear 'Fairytale of New York' gazillion times a day  :(

It exists to save you from all the really really really shit annoying xmas songs they'd play instead of it

I find it helps to think of Cliff Richard songs when its on. Yes its been done to death and all that but at least its not….

yes, I go home drink quietly and have a pleasant few days playing games with the family. It's peaceful, and seeing as none of them are obsessed with gifts too much we all get on fine. I don't get to see the family too often through the year so I enjoy it. This year, my christmas wish list is " a shirt or toothbrush" or whiskey. I'll be buying whiskey anyway. Plus I take it as a given I will have my annual underwear stock renewal in my stocking along with the instantly chuckable puzzlebook.

Pretty much my thoughts - I get to drink and spend time with the family which most of I get along with and enjoy the company of - it's also a time of year where people generally seem to be in a better mood, office parties/lunch and more drinking - so yeah, looking forward to it.

I'll give the office party a swerve as per usual.

 

It's in the centre of town on black Friday, I just don't need a free beer that much (not when I can get my own on expenses!).

 

I've learnt from my mistakes though, I'll just arrange a meeting somewhere for that day and tut a lot and wish everyone a good one. What I won't do is kill off the same relative twice, a mistake I did previously make. I announced one year my Uncle Fernando had died and I had to attend to family matters. I thought giving him a random funny name added some clever credibility to it. Rather stupidly, a year or two later I killed him off again having thought last time I'd only said he was ill.
