I like Christmas the event, because i get a chance to spend a bit more time with my family all in the same house. I dont like the expense and commercialism that surrounds it.

Had the perfect Xmas a few years back!

Volunteered to work 11pm -7am on Xmas Eve, took one 5-minute call, spent the rest of the 8 hours getting paid triple-time to play games and watch films, then went home and slept until Xmas Dinner was ready!

Cant see the point in it, people spend money they haven't got, drink and eat too much regret it all in January.

T.V At xmas is crap, (apart from Steve Mcqueen)

You can't move around in the shops, or on the roads

It was O.K when I had young children but that was a long time ago.

I've seen TOOOO many Xmas's to be bothered any more.

I dont send cards, I buy my grown up kids USEFUL things during the year

New year is a waste as well.

Easter what's the point.

Bonfire night same again.

My work takes me into supermarkets all year, you should see the amount of food people buy at Xmas, Supermarket takings DOUBLE at Xmas. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE for a family to eat that much.

Then the first day shops are open after xmas, they are back for more...
