The only good bit is seeing my nephews.

The rest of it can fuck off. Spending time with my mother in law and her ever so slightly racist undertones, watching the queens speech and getting called a fucking left wing scouser who should love the queen and all she does, watching my Mrs and her mum scoff as much food into their faces as is humanly possible and then follow that up with sweets then not be able to move for hours because they've filled their fat faces so much. Watch them bicker over inane shite all day and probably fall out at the end of it, not have a drink because we live a couple of miles from home and I have to drive because it's too cold and/or rainy to walk.

 

"We can't go to your mum and dad's because my mum has got nobody else"

 

There's a reason for that.

 

I fucking hate Christmas and I'm dreading it already. It's fucking shite.

I enjoy it although my wife’s OTT love of it annoys me. 

 

She also think Boxing Day is for families as well. Errr, no. I can only remember 2 Boxing Days when I’ve not been to the football home or away, that is what Boxing Day is for.

I agree with your wife. I used to attend most games, home and away, but never on Boxing Day.

 

Spending time with family > footy

 

In my opinion, of course.

That comment alone should get you lynched. Family is for Christmas day only. They can all fuck off for another 364 days after that.

It appears her vile little fat niece's Chav supporting twat of a boyfriend is not comimg to dinner but 'turning up later'. I'll turn the cockney wanker up. A workout will do me good.

 

All in all though everything points to a fucking disater. I would give anything for two quiet days.

And it gets worse. Her Indoors has invited relatives from Yorkshire (who she never sees or speaks to the rest of the year) tommorrow, to collect their presents. Fucking hell. This will involve their six year old daughter. They are then pissing off to a local garden centre for santa's fucking grotto. I have told them to be out before 4pm as I wish to watch a certain sporting event in which endless profanities and obscenities will ensue directed at one of the sides in said sporting contest. If the kid's still here then fucking tough.

 

I fucking despise christmas.

I think I've almost completed my collection of them, I picked up The Porky Chopper from a charity shop the other day. 

It's fun buying them from Smiths in the airport because the auto payment machine always starts bleeping for a human assistant because of age restrictions and everyone thinks you are buying a porno.

I love Christmas. The construction industry shuts down for 10 days, so even us office CAD monkeys get a good break; with the last few bits of annual leave and our Christmas do, I actually finish at Thursday lunchtime and aren't back until the 2nd. 

 

We get to see friends in Hull and Lincoln, spend a couple of lazy days with our families, eat, drink, play games and generally laze about. We get to spend time with our joyous nieces and nephews, including a brand new niece, and exchange a few thoughtful gifts with restrained spending! 

 

We'll then come back to Sheffield, go for a walk, do a few jobs in the house and garden and have a leisurely new year.

 

Clearly Christmas can be a corporate shitfest but we choose not to treat it that way and it's great.

 

/end middle class Christmas pontificating.

I don't hate it, but it's a pain in the ass, that's for sure. Has been ever since my Parents got divorced, and got worse when I married the Mrs. Every fucking year it's Christmas Eve at one of my parents places, if it's with my mom's, we may do 2 different places. Then we just have to stay at my Mrs. mom's house because it's their family tradition. It was everyone's fucking family tradition when they were growing up, your family is not special. Then I have breakfast with which ever part of my family I didn't see the day before, and then it's back to my Mrs. Mom's. It's great seeing people, but I usually spend 4 hrs total in the car across the 2 days.

I like Christmas, what I can't stand is the television's perception that its all knitted jumpers, home made decorations, smiles, loads of prezzies, eggnog and home made mulled winer and the world is at peace and all families are happy -  yet when you wake up today to hear stories about that cunting hotel chain in Hull and that foodbanks are now becoming a national necessity and we are all meant to lap it up and think peace and goodwill to all men, when in reality, everyone is in it for themselves and fuck everyone else. 

 

Due to the above, me and Mrs Butty are making inquiries about helping out at a local homeless/food shelter this Christmas day, just so not to feel total hypocritical cunts. It may come off, it mightn't, be we are going to give it a go.
