Thanks for the present - NOT!
I have finally decided that for us adults Christmas gifts are crap!! Ouch! Harsh! I hear you say. Well how many of last year’s Christmas presents really made you smile? Lucky you if you got some cool gifts at Christmas! Not so lucky if you are hoping that ‘your’ M&S will exchange ‘your’ woolly item for something really nice that you’d like to choose yourself? Oh and beware the possibility that Great Aunt Fanny bought it a year ago in the January sales. “Sorry dear this is VERY old stock, we can only offer you £2!” Oh the shame!
Like fools we all rush around in the days before Christmas chipping and pinning all over town! We give and receive the same old stuff year after year: perfume, scarves, gloves, slippers…. only to fain excitement at that critical moment, you know the one, when everyone watches intently for your Oscar winning performance of “Oooh, it’s lovely” and “I’ve wanted one of these for ages!!” Liar, liar, pants on fire! Could this be why we succumb to charades all day, you know, to get some practice in before the big unwrapping moment? Get that performance wrong and boy do we suffer. Don’t dare hint at disappointment - one false move and it’s all over folks, never to be forgotten!
The charities are ahead of the game and are posting bags through our doors as fast as they can. Good for them I say, but what a total bloody waste of our money, or even Great Aunt Fanny’s…..

I couldn’t agree more, myself, but not everyone is as clever as you seem to be. Or as I seem to be! HA! :-p
