Can’t think of five things, but ...

 

The washing up is endless

I hate taking the tree and decs down on New Year’s Day

I hate the fact that mince pies aren’t one of my five-a-day

honestly, I am clutching at straws ... it’s been/it is good πŸ‘

Great effort though  

I try moonman ... indeed, there are many who say I am trying!!

Think of all those bulbs you planted in autumn. The’ll soon be popping their heads through the earth, with the promise of a lovely Spring to follow.

Hello people!

1: the in laws insistence on salad and ham for Christmas dinner. 

2: the in laws leaving people out from the gift giving. 

3: the in laws telling the same stories without taking a breath or taking an interest in anyone else’s life. 

4: the in laws passive aggressive spite and vitriol. 

5: the in laws. 

Hi Roxan Belated Merry Christmas Hope it was a good one , despite the in laws

They were a nightmare for me last year. I spent the best part of a month chasing them up.  They kept saying they'd tried to deliver when they'd done nothing of the sort, the website stated the package was out on delivery when it wasn't.  Left delivery cards, when they didn't.  So know that one only too well!

It being dark all the time

 

The terrible festive TV that isn't:  BBC: Next it's our festive celebrity edition of Pointless.  Me: you do celebrity editions of it all year round!  

 

Morecambe and Wise and has been comedians from the 80s/90s 'educating' viewers as to why Morecambe and Wise are funnier than everything else that has ever existed.

 

Trying to choose presents for inlaws who aren't young children

 

At 10:30pm on Xmas Day, thinking, was that it?

Had all of that myself. When I see my parcel is being delivered by Hermes, my heart sinks. I'm OK with paying postage, but I want to have an option to omit Hermes from the list of delivery companies.

Hermes!

Oh i've used them and were great - will bear your experience in mind

They'll be great until they aren't; and then you'll find they're an absolute nightmare!

Exactly so! I've been getting stuff from that same retailer for slightly over two years and they only use Hermes and in all that time there's only been one minor fault.Rest of the time I've received my stuff 2 days after I ordered it.
