Don't panic, I'm not gonna rail against Christmas. I actually despise all those bah humbuggers because there is enough to get miserable about through the year without dampening the festive spirit as well.
I tell you what though - the whole thing is massively stressful.
Meeting up with family sounds fun enough but preparing for a visit is hell. Not to mention overstocking on food and chocolates and having to buy ad wrap everyone's present. I love buying presents for people but so many at once leaves it more of a chore than anything.
And is it me or does it get earlier every year?
I also despise 'Christmas music'. Oh for someone to write a decent Christmas tune that hasn't already been heard a thousand times before. The bland awful versions of 'classics' that we get re-recorded by today's pop artists are useless.
Snow: I love it and it's brilliant for the kids. But it shuts half the country down! Football matches shouldn't be cancelled and when people can't get home...
Anyway.
Despite it all I love Christmas because mostly it brings out the best in people and that can't be bad!
