Well,
Happy Christmas to you all! I will be spending tomorrow doing the following:
1) Opening presents
2) Going to church
3) Having dinner/tea at my Nan's, with my Mum, Dad and brother
4) Sleeping
I don't feel particularly excited - I'd hate to think I've outgrown the whole Christmas present giving thing. Yikes! We always used to go carol singing on Christmas Eve, around the streets of Ashingdon. That made me feel Christmassy. That was me and the people from my church. I used to play the accordion. We raised money for charity. But the problem with carol singing today is that no-one can hear you! They have double glazing and unless you go and knock on people's doors they're none the wiser. I can't help but think that's spoiled one part of Christmas. The only carol singers we get these days are little kids who don't know any of the words and want money...
So here I am.
But (excellent Christmas present!) the Inland Revenue have given me £257 back - all the tax I paid this year! Woo-hoo!
Still not feeling Christmassy...
But hey. :p
