The Christmas List

December 25 conjures the following:

Turkey, presents, tinsel, baubles, pine, fir, lights, pudding, chocolates, food, alcohol, friends, family, fights, stockings, chimneys, Santa...

Greedy kids, over enthusiastic shoppers, overloaded food tables, wasted food, wasted wrapping paper, unwanted gifts, unpleasant surprises, family fights...

Spirit of love, smiling people, dreamy faces, uplifted faces looking for snow, praying for miracles, prayers, warmth, togetherness...

Hopes dashed, stressed out adults, overfed children, appeals on TV which wrench your heart, endless repeats of 'Last Christmas', 'Dreaming of a white Christmas', 'Santa Baby', ' All I want for Christmas'...everything red and green...

£1.5million per minute being spent today, one day before Christmas, said one radio station...interesting thought...
