Thanks frenchconnexion

Loving both your answers, Interesting the Star tree topper is winning over the angel topper !

What was the present you recycled?

I did that once, I had someone buy me a Lavender Bath Set and I don't like the smell of Lavender so recycled it the following year for a Secret Santa Gift [:p]

Christmas is for women, kids, gayers and people with kids. As I am none of those the whole thing is completely irrelevant for me.

It is just like a boring Sunday. A day to catch up on a bit of sleep. Nothing more nothing less.

The whole concept of a festive period completely passes me by. I doubt you would be able to tell it was Christmas in my house. I've always felt it was something you grow out of.

Bah

If you don't have kids what is the point?

Read the facking instructions banks - just answer N/A to all of them... and cheer up you miserable fvcker! 

Even questions about Christmas get on my tits.

No more relevant than a rainy Sunday in January in my opinion. I have a genuine dislike of it. Christ even the racing is off more than it is on at that time. No problem if it is just a day but it dominates half the year.

Get the BHA to chuck in a couple of christmas day AW meetings plus a handful of football matches like there used to be and maybe an ODI in West Indies for the evening viewing and I might start accepting it.

I'm not really into the family stuff so it is pretty pointless. Might have to go to Ireland for the Lexus chase meeting to relieve the boredom. Fly out on xmas day ready for the boxing day start of the meeting sounds good.

I'll try but I can't promise!

Banks, Bah Humbug!

Please can some more take part before 4pm please? pretty please I need to enter the results into a machine.

It's very important [:D][:x]
