xmas shopping

Is it really over?, geez I don't know about the other fellas on hotcopper but im knackered, ive been on holidays since last week and its all a blur, shopping centre after shopping centre, full car parks and we need this and then that and always a new person we need to buy for, I cant fit a can of coke in the fridge its chockers with ham, pork, salads ect, the fridge is full and the wallet nearly empty, next year im tempted to take 2 weeks away from the 20th December because at 52 its getting too hard, merry xmas to everybody and a special nod to the over 50s..
