After a morning of watching my kids opening their presents last year, I was sat at the dinner table surrounded by my family. I loaded my fork up with turkey, stuffing and cranberry sauce, but I didn't lift it to my mouth, I threw it back down on my plate in disgust.
My wife, concerned, asked me what was wrong.
"What's wrong!?" I shrilled. "Sainsbury's had advent calendars for sale...in September! It's ruined everthing!" and I ran upstairs crying like a giant baby.
