And what have you done?
Are you looking forward to this festive season?
Is it the most wonderful time of the year for you?
Do u go for it deck your halls? Eat a Yule log? Go all out with close ones nearby?
Or is it a season of dread and fear? In the d*unk tank? Did you give someone your heart last year? |

I really like the build up to Xmas, although it's starting earlier and earlier.
I love Christmas eve, it's one of my fav days. A few drinks out with my partner, then home for cheese & a good film.
I find the actual day a bit Meh & find I miss my family even more at Christmas, as they're all sadly gone. |

I love yule log. It's probably one of my favourite cakes. Still undecided wether or not I'm putting decorations up as my place is looking cosy as it is atm. Need to stock up on some booze though once the basics are on special offer and splash out on some good rum. |

The build up can be fun, I enjoy planning and preparing things. The day itself is always a bit of an anticlimax but enjoyable nontheless. We prefer boxing day when we shut the world out, turn the heating up, eat chocolate and watch rubbish telly. |

I bloody love christmas!
I love the build-up to it, love all the nice food being out, love the cheap veg in the shops, love the cheesy christmas films on telly, love all the twinkling lights and the glitter and the efforts made to make shops and towns look pretty.
I take my main break from work over christmas so I can really revel in it.
I see family on christmas eve and boxing day, have christmas dinner out with my mum, otherwise I just spend my time however I feel like, lazy days full of schmaltz and festive cliché. Can't get enough. |

I love Christmas! the build up to it, the hustle and bustle of the shops, the music, the lights, the cozy nights in.
I love being able to make it magical for my kids, seeing their little faces on Christmas morning and spending quality time with family. |

When December 1st comes around, the Christmas films go on - none of that Channel 5 afternoon shot-on-digital generic crap, but the proper stuff.
There's a load of offbeat ones, including D.O.A (1988), The Night Train Murders, Black Christmas (1974) and Vice Versa, so it isn't all schmaltzy movies. 
Christmas is still a big deal with us, and with no kids, the big day is a time to relax, watch Die Hard and just have fun. |

No Decs.. No Tree.. No Family & Working.
So dropping my Sons Pressie off in London, stopping in to see my Dad near Heathrow and coming home to gaze in wonder at the rapidly diminishing line of full carlsberg crates |
