And a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all from here too.... Looking out of the office there's a few cm. of snow on the ground making the area look a bit more festive today. Shame we're still at work  |

I think I posted something on these lines last year and my attitude has since hardened. I absolutely hate Christmas and always have. Except when I was a kid obviously. And here's why I find the whole thing so unpalatable, in no particular order:
Goodwill to all men my arse; drunken people vomitting and vandalising the council xmas tree; mindless violence means the streets are littered with the detritus of excess; cubes of broken bus stop glass litter the pavements; living for a week on a diet consisting on reheated dried out turkey, putrid sausage rolls, gone-off gravy, stale bread and burnt sprouts; getting a belt off the dodgy fairy lights; the smell of pissy old people; the sickening waste of food when so many people in the world go without; false joviality; cards from people you wished would just sod off and stay sodded off; next door's spoiled brats arguing and hitting each other; you can't get to the bar in the local pub cos it's clogged up with idiots you never see in there the other 360 days of the year, f**k them; the golf club's shut; the mindboggling expense of the whole sorry episode; the naked commercialism of the retailers and the consumers walking blindly into their nasty little shops to buy stuff made by child labour in the third world; waking up on Xmas day with the great new taste of stomach acid in the throat and feeling as bloated as a dead cow, getting so monstrously drunk at the cheapskate office party you end up shagging fat ugly Dierdrie from IT dept; and that little lot's just for starters.
To those that actually enjoy it, then I suppose I ought to say happy christmas. But I'm not going to. Suffice to say, stuff christmas and
Below piccy was kindly sent to me last year by Steve Brown; I treasure it.
Compliments of the season

Oh well - and he's called me a cynical bastard.
Christmas is a magical time. Whether you're a God botherer, piss-artist, vendor of festive crap or just an ol' romantic softee (like Zarse really is).
I am one of eight children in my family (good catholic parents, see). My father swears to me that he has no idea how he managed to provide a happy, joyful and comfortable Christmas for us all, on the salary that he earned. He put it down to magic. My mother, on the other hand, put it down to her shrewd management of the family budget - but I prefer my dad's version. As a kid (with 7 brothers and sisters) Christmas was an utterly fantastic time. As I've got older and have my own off-spring, the magic has been perpetuated by my own child.
I think my ONLY regret in not being in England anymore is that Christmas in Florida is w**k, compared to the festive season at home. I miss the cold, foggy Yorkshire weather, at this time of year - cosy pubs and general goodwill. I'd rather be in England at Christmas - no question.
And on that happy note - all the very best to everyone on this forum. I hope Santa brings you everything you wished for - and a little more.
Andy, chill out and get some eggnog down you.

Just froze my knackers off nipping outside to take this. It's like Peal Harbor out there. We also have a car, wife and nob comparison contest too in my neighborhood! Just found out The Holy Father is going to monk on Indy this Christmas - 7-15 inches of snow projected this week! Merry Xmas all. |
