No, I start thinking about Christmas on 23 Dec and stop thinking about it on 26. The whole thing is just a pain in the arris.

I am just not built for Christmas.

Not really ..we've been plagued with it since about the end of August when the first Christmas stuff started creeping into the shops . I do like Christmas but it seems to last three months these days and it's rammed down your throat constantly .By the time it gets here I'm heartily sick of it of it all .

[cazzz1975]

yes, bring it all on!!!

christmas jumpers for all!!

[lady-janine]

sorry i should have made it clear i did not mean the festive time foisted on us by shops etc but time spent with family or friends - keeping in touch, going out, that sort of thing.

23rd December barmaid? Did I mention that's when I fly off on my holidays?

[Barmaid]

Oh sorry Lady-J. That is the bit of Christmas I LOVE. We do spend time together as a family throughout the year, but Christmas is extra special. My parents' house is built for Christmas (lovely georgian house with open fireplaces) and we have such a happy time. Plus every Christmas is ever more valuable now my grandparents are getting on.

I've got a very quiet December ahead, not much work so will catch up on overdue tasks around the house.

Christmas day will be spent alone drinking champagne and eating cheese on toast.

[Barmaid]

No i don't believe you have mentioned that FGT. For at least 24 hours.......

[friedgreentomato]

Only 24 hours must keep you lot better updated!!!
