What's the best part of the festive season for you?
For me, it's remembering what Christmas means, what it's all about.
Football on Boxing Day!!
After a day being forced to spend happy families with people you hardly ever see during the rest of the year, the joy I get at escaping on Boxing Day is unsurpassed.

Sounds good. Thus escaping the interminable party games and small talk. I spend Christmas Day with my in-laws. It's painful. |

The looks on the kids' faces as they open their presents. Before the inevitable disappointment as Daddy struggles for the best part of the day to put the fucking things together/find the right batteries/work out how the bloody thing's supposed to work.

When you've got young kids Christmas is great.
When it's just adults, it's the most boring day of the year.

Good shout. But don't forget the playing with something for 5 seconds before moving on to the next present for another 5 seconds and then saying they don't know how to do it / use it / play wth it. |

Time off work
Good excuse to lie about in front of the TV, eating and drinking alcohol all day

Going to the pub all day and instead of having to keep one eye on the clock for some reason, not even knowing what day it is.

It's a fair point. Not to mention the compulsory "getting bored of waiting for Daddy to set up the first thing and so amusing themselves by squabbling over the £2.50 stocking filler when they've got scad loads of other stuff they could be playing with that you've blown a decent few ton on" aspect. Always heartwarming that one |
