Bah-humbug...Christmas gripes

'Tis the season to be jolly!

Crock 'o shite.

Put all your Christmas grumblings in here, I'll start...

People with excessive Christmas lights - everyone hates you, and has done since September when you put them up.

Why do we only ever have Christmas pudding once a year when we're too full to enjoy it?
I had some last week. I've still got a couple more...

Shops and supermarkets. I am not going to buy any of your Christmas stuff before December; even if you start displaying it in early September.

I might spent money on other stuff you could have filled that shelf space with though, providing it wasn't early Easter eggs. Just a thought.

Steamed, with whipped cream. And a wee glass of something sweet and sticky

Sorry, that was a reply to the esteemed User.

The fact that i have to buy feckin' presents.

Mr R bought a load at New Year about three or for years ago. We're still eating them. They're lovely sliced and fried in butter with a dollop of creme fraiche and a slur of brandy.

Is that a standard measure in your house?

My Xtmas grumble?

Folk who grumble about Xtmas...

Tiss the season to be jolly, bollocks, this time of year I'd rather hibernate, why didn't they do it in the summer when its warm.

Christmas songs! why do they trot out the same ones every year? Most of them I got bored with twenty odd years ago, wheres the new ones?

I ate last Christmas's pudding and brandy sauce last August on one of those rare hot days we had.

Home made rum butter (none of this brandy cr*p) with xmas pud and a lashing of double cream..... mmmmm delicious!
Sprouts... just love them but why only once a year (oh yes, mummy pig complaining of the smell the morning after...)
And yes, bloody xmas decorations and lights in November (or earlier) as well as the blatant commercialisation...

I'm working all of it again. Looking forward to everyone telling me about their fortnight off.

At least the roads will be quiet

I haven't heard Slade's Here it is bollocks yet. I must've heard that crap song at least 10,000 times!!

They should scrap 'driving home for Christmas' and just play 'The Road to Hell'...
