I don't really like Christmas.
Nine times out of ten I have to work though it.
It's an inconvienience to me. I have to buy things that my friends and relatives don't really want. I like looking at snow from the warm side of a window, but I hate driving or walking in it. I dont like the fact that other people are winding down for the year whilst I am gearing up for yet another stint at work. I don't like the fact that after all our over indulgence all we have to look foward to (in the UK at least) is January.
I DO like my boys however. Whatever time of year, Bodie and Doyle are with me. They become especially important at Christmas when there are challenges and threads going on. Whilst others are making lists and gathering supplies, I just want to make sure that I am keeping up with the latest lovely stories and pictures whist trying to come up with something of my own.
Happy Pros'ey Christmas everyone xx

If I could I would spend DecemberJanuaryFebruary (at least) at the other end of the world :-\
Thoughts of B&D are just the thing to help one get through this time of year. Visions of CI5 agents dancing in our heads :-)
