Tell everyone you've eaten and drunk so much that it's making you feel ill so you can go to bed early

Exactly right. I make sure my kid gets what he needs and generally what he wants and steer him towards
Good choices. Eg not a fekkin Electric Scooter. And make sure hes happy. I do just enough to keep the wife happy. And if I can nick something extra for fishing I do

But im also going to be cleaning the house from top to bottom. And shopping and cooking for 8 . And thats small this year. We have had 18 before now. Im not a grinch, i don't put other people down about it but I literally couldnt give a toss. For me, its just one long chore of extra work and expense.

You'd struggle to find any bush these day's, something else that seems to have disappeared.

A bush would be like a phone with a dial on it to kids these day's, they wouldn't know where to stick their fingers in either.

If anyone is stuck for ideas on presents this year there is an excellent book out.

Brendas beaver needs a barber.

There is a review / reading on YouTube by an American lady.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.
