Not if it takes more energy to walk to the car than it does tot he Chinese. Actually, I think that to participate properly one should probably have it delivered.

Preferably by drone - ahh no, that's next year isn't it?

Ah I remember the Christmas chocolates MrsE brought home from school. She does not really like chocolate so it was up to me to take up the slack.

Si to sole your problem just take a box of chocolates and eat them all the way to the take away.

Modern day Christmas in one sentance:

People spending money they can't afford on presents that people neither want or need.

People spending money they can't afford on presents that people neither want or need.

Amen to that (not that I am in any way religious)

One of the many gripes (part of the reason I took early retirement) which I had against my former employers, was the compulsory three (in some years four) days annual leave without the option, which we all had to take. My plea that I was perfectly willing to go in during the Xmas break, fell of deaf ears (or rather, "elf 'n' safety" know-all ears). The rigmarole was made worse by the fact that Xmas day falls on a different day of the week each year. Why can't it at the very least be fixed on, say, the last Sunday in December, similar to Easter? I suppose the god squad would be up in arms about that. Remind them please that "25th December" is a complete fiction, dreamt up by some bishops in the 4th century...

Sorry - today is, not unusual for me, a 'bad mood' day....
