the whole christmas thing is a load of jumped up american crap if you ask me... although its great to see kids faces opening up there presents :} but is it really worth the grief?? everything just costs so much, everyone gets more into debt, and then spend the next year avoiding debt collectors! no wonder new years day has a high suicide rate !! |

I just dont like christmas full stop, im not religious so why do i feel the need to celebrate it? Forced into spending money by the media who shoves it in your face because you dont want to disappoint the kids or have the feeling left out
Most kids now days dont even know what its all about, you ask the kids round here and to them christmas is just the time of year they get a new bike
Its all a bit hypocritical to 95% of the UK if you ask me
bah humbug |

Being the one to clean the family home before la deluge...
And more of a sadness than a niggle: opening the decorations box and discovering which bauble from childhood didn't make it
Along with my regular niggle - the deeply annoying and fiddly fake tree that I always end up swearing over |

"Do you have any, of so what are they?
Mine are....
Decorations smell horrid.
People doing things and eating things beacause its christmas.
"
My main niggle is the removal men in January decided to not unload all of our Christmas stuff and we only realised on Saturday, bet they are enjoying our stuff |

It's your Christmas ... do what you want with it ... take control.
This year I can't afford to buy meaningless presents and won't pay high street prices to massive companies so they can get richer and I don't use credit ... SO ... I made all of my family's presents inexpensively and everyone has something which is personal to them, is a one off and which they will cherish. I've made jewellery, fruit cake, fudge and clothing.
I cannot spend the day worrying that my roast potatoes are not done just right and want to relax so we're going to the pub for lunch. Also there will be no massive shopping list, no leftovers, no waste and fewer calories.
I think it's going to be a wonderful Christmas. |

"Being nice to people you cant fucking stand....beacuse its christmas. "
I agree. Visitors that only appear at Christmas , make themselves comfortable and drink all you're drink and you don't even like um but as they brought the kids presents you put up with it. I so hate that |

My mate does that. She's already up to her ears in debt. She buys literally everything on her kids' santa wish list. She admitted they didn't even open the boxes of some toys last year.
Another niggle... Shops full of people loitering like loons... |

I love Christmas and all it entails. I love buying presents, wrapping them, decorating the house, even christmas food shopping.
I cant really think of anything that really annoys me. I never get into debt at christmas, thats one thing I would never do, im very organised so I do save from August really.
The dog is a bit silly around the christmas tree, shes very territorial about it, thats mainly because there are chocolates on it that she has one of every so often. She sits and guards the tree all the time. I wouldnt even change that really and I could easily by not putting chocs on. |
