Merry Christmas

Eat the food, use the wrong verbs, and end up getting charged double.

Aw, very nice, mb.
Interesting comment too about when the song was originally recorded.
I’ll try to find something nice to add to this thread.

I have friends and relatives in retail and I know it can be rough. My sympathies.
Think about me—working with young children the week before Christmas when it’s a full moon!
Fortunately I am now off until Monday.

went to our local supermarket this arvo to buy some last minute stuff, and their carols playing were horrendous. staff and customers had complained to management about it, but nothing had been done. i know i will not be watching the carols tonight. xmas has become way to commercialised (i think thats the spelling) these days.

spending xmas day with my friends tomorrow though
