I know what you mean Lyn, all that expense, fuss and work for one day, I did enjoy it more when the children were young but now it doesn’t seem to have any meaning and to be honest I would rather be out with my camera. Laughing

Exactly!! and I agree...its far too commercial, the shops are just out to make as much £ as they can, its just not the same anymore.

Christmas is what you make of it, like any other holiday of the year, I dont agree with shops trying to make as much money as they can....does ruin it

My coworkers are talking about Xmas now...see Lyn...I'm not the only one that dosen't work! LOL

I love Christmas but sadly you need a huge chunk of change to do properly, especially with young kids.  This year I have to try and be really creative!!
