Christmas tensions

(Apologies if this is posted in the wrong place or has already been posted - mods please feel free to move/merge. )

Given some of the dramas and stresses that have appeared in other threads, I thought this was an interesting yet sadly, entirely predictable, story about how busy one court in particular is at this time of year. What should be a straightforward, laid-back time to relax with family and friends seems to implode under the pressures that build up - on individuals and on relationships.
