In a bun dance

If I'm going to get something, I usually get it in spades - luck (both kinds), children, clutter, dirty laundry, bright ideas, daft ideas...

My 12 Questions of Christmas

December 19, 2018 By Ellen

This year I’m actually fairly jolly. Ho ho ho and all that, but some things are baffling me:

  • Who said we have to get all our shopping done by the first weekend in December? 
  • Why is a dressing gown and a tea towel the accepted costume for nativity plays? 
  • When are all these parties we are supposed to need little black dresses for? 
  • And where are my invitations? 
  • Who cares that most of the Christmas telly is repeats?
  • Why are the Christmas adverts even a thing worth talking about? 
  • Why do we feel guilty if we aren’t rushing about in a festive flap? 
  • When did we decide it was a good idea to buy (and wear once) a horrible jumper just because it’s Christmas? 
  • Why don’t battery operated toys have, by law, to come with batteries? 
  • Why would you buy a Christmas present for your pet? 
  • Eggnog – why would you? 
  • And finally why is it so hot in the shops?
