As ive got older and seen the change, i dislike it more and more.
I like the time off (even though no pay),
I like the fact that we spend time with others,
but the whole essence of it has gone imo.
Too commercial, its not about the good tidings anymore, its about retailers telling us we need to buy more crap we dont need.
It starts in september, for 1 day of the year
Everybody is stressed, people rush around spending money they aint got on people they dont like or hardly see.
Roads are stupidly busy with people who cant drive.
Quite happily do without it tbh, only thing that does drive me to keep going apart from the wife is the fact that this is a Christian country and if we dont keep our traditions, they will be lost forever along with our indentity and instead celebrate devalihi (sp)or something.
Merry Christmas
