    Christmas is all about the children.
    Despite mother being on benefits (not sure who father is), little Tyler cannot be expected to get through Christmas without a new Iphone. IPad and designer trainers.

    Though still qulaifies to be included in the child poverty statistics of course.

    Personally I remain to be convinced (despite many people insisting that it is true) that anyone actually likes Brussels sprouts. I don't like stuffing or Christmas pudding either so basically that solves the problem. Lunch on Dec 25th is invariably a curry from a supermarket's ready meals cabinet.
    My thoughts exactly!
    I can afford anything that I want.
    Just so long as I don't want much.

    Just a reminder, start planning now!

    Already stock piling Christmas puddings. Bring it on.
