Do you like Christmas?

100% proof of brainwashing :)

It's complete fucking shit, and Turkey taste's like vile shit. It puts pressure on people to buy a mountain of food for the family, buy presents and is a shit time for people on their own. It encourages millions to buy plastic shite manufactured in China that ends up in landfills and that's before you even think about the extra plastic packaging.

And I hate Noddy fucking Holder and that excrement by Cliff Richards "Christmastime Mistletoe and wine, children singing christian rhyme, with logs on the fire".........blah blah blah, repeat a hundred twatting times.

I always enjoyed Christmas, but there was a time, when I split with my children's mum, that it became a pain in the arse. I would wake up without my children, then go and collect them 20 miles away at some point in the day, then drive 35 miles to see people they wanted to see, and so on. I enjoy it now that they are adults, but my children lost their mum in their teens, and my step children lost their father in theirs, so Christmas lost its spark and became a different, more thoughtful than celebratory time. I think these events undoubtedly shape what the season means to you.
 
I'm afraid I now wake up on Xmas morning with a truly horrible feeling of dread. I really wish I could afford to go somewhere hot every Xmas.
nail on the head! can't get her indoors to go
 
Don’t like rubbing it in but I am really looking forward to Christmas this year. We will be visiting our daughter and family in Tauranga, New Zealand and having a BBQ on the beach at Papamoa or Mount Maunganui.

We are so fortunate to be able to afford to go, we will be donating our winter fuel allowance to a local homeless charity as we will not be requiring it.
I would pay NOT to have to fly to Nrew Zealand. A hideous experience.
I blody loathe flying,
