I like it when I’m sitting down at the dinner then I know I can start to relax, but up to Christmas I’m flat out working to even think about it so it comes up pretty quickly

I bought some lights,just cheap things,for the place I was staying the other night,no tree there so I improvised.

yeah I don't mind it Better now cos of me daughter, Christmas oftentimes has a way of bringing people together who you don't quite see as much for whatever reason, some good people and of course some divs you think get off out of it about

I like to see me nieces and nephews faces an make it enjoyable for them, an try and learn em Christmas ain't all about the presents but it's about family and if you believe in it about Jesus,   

I like all the grub and getting on the drink with the boys and having a laugh and joke with one another

I hate Xmas never really liked it as a kid used to use it to go out with dogs then when kids came along have to get involved find it a massive rip off costs us about 3500 which for a day is a joke in my eyes when the kids get stuff all year round.my mrs loves it though 4 out of the 5 kids just ask for money now so there's no xmasy feel wake up give them a wad of notes done where the mrs used to like going and buying all the presents this year though the baby (he's 3)is really excited for the 1st time which I buzz off so its all about trying to make it extra special for him this year.

Sounds like most days in our house !

The good Lady loves it. I don't so much dislike Xmas, rather the relentless consumerist frenzy that gets whipped up.............buying presents for people we haven't seen for years, posting cards to people we barely know and don't even like very much just because they sent us one etc.

I keep threatening to instigate a pre-NUPP agreement - No Unnecessary Present Purchasing...............but my proposal is always overturned by a power greater than me !

I hate Christmas, used to love it, but now it starts in October it lost it's meaning, used to be peace and good will to all, now it's just an excuse for people who are hopelessly in debt to buy stuff they can't afford. Only thing I like now is the Christmas dinner, and trifle.
