Gerboas, gifts & groans - it must be Christmas

Fact one: It's definitely Christmas.

The proof:

The News has gone peculiar. News programmes normally dedicated to hard hitting, miserable stories of death, misery, doom and gloom have been forfeited for X-Factor results, the Gerboa (haven't you heard? Breaking news on BBC, they've found a mouse with kangaroo legs and elephants' ears), how to make Christmas pudding & stories of who has the most lights on their roof.

The whole world has gone shopping - together. Homes are deserted. Drive ways are empty. And every time I try to go shopping I end up wanting to tear my hair out and scream. Yes, everyone is shopping, at once.

White wine is out of fashion. In favour of something a little warmer - I'm onto Mulled wine as if it's going out of fashion - stuff the Chablis, I want cinnamon & spices.

Everyone wants to tell us what to wear. I can't open a magazine without being told which sequined top to wear with wide legged black trousers and sparkly sandals to the Christmas Party. Yawn.

Fact two: I'm definitely panicking.

Proof:

I still only have two Christmas presents.

I don't have my tree up yet.

I hate turkey.

What am I going to do?

Shut up and go shopping I guess...
