I managed to knock a Christmas tree over at the end of a till in Asda West Swindon a couple of hours ago, I dealt it a glancing blow with a 4 pinter of milk.

But spare a thought for the poor bastards working in retail, it's bad enough just being confronted with it when you go shopping, imagine having Christmas music piped into your skull from November onwards
That's not the worst thing, having to work over Christmas/New year is horrible. Although I have been quite lucky, I work Christmas Eve and then not again until the 29th. I also have New years eve and New Years day off. A lot of people I work with only have Christmas Day off and that is it, which I can imagine is horrible. |

Which is what?
Welll I'm not an expert but roughly speaking "Peace and goodwill to all men on earth" and I would extend that to women and children too. |

I always enjoy the run up to Christmas, usually a good atmosphere in the pubs etc. but agree with the rampant commercialism it now is. Rather see that and people in work however than the alternative, but appreciate those who do have to work and put up with the great British public! Not so keen on the day itself, always seems to cause friction based around the main meal, why that should be I am not too sure as I always viewed it as a rather bigger roast dinner than usual where overeating is mandatory, but then again I am no master chef! Roll on boxing day where some sense of normality reigns - always helped when the Town are at home.  |

Secondly why did you feel the need to censor the word Christmas?
Because I can't bring myself to say it (or type it) until at least December 1st. |

We normally go off to Cornwall for either Christmas or the new year. In our family the politics of who's inviting who round does my head in so being down there out the way works well for us. Still have a traditional Xmas dinner etc but boxing day we revert back to holiday mode having a kick about on the beach and fish and chips.

Having spent quite a few years in the US, I thoroughly recommend you all try Thanksgiving. It's Christmas without the presents...
