Default estimate of xmas cost.

food, couple a hundred quid, presents for family, probably a ton,

presents for the missus, god knows, her list of "i want" gets longer every year.

we said though we're gonna have a quiet xmas this year as want to save and spend money on the house.

i don't get all this "buy presants for everyone crap

my way of thinking is that i don't need to select just one day in the year where i show my appreciasion for my friends and family, i do it every day of the year
