    I am stuck in the house with three 17 year olds and my other half who counts as a 17 year old when it comes to Christmas.
    They're putting up the Christmas tree and decorations, playing Christmas music and not only that but accompanying it on two guitars and singing. Admittedly one of them is a brilliant singer and guitar player but I'm finding this of no consolation. There's a football out on the lawn but it's like an alien concept to them. I'm worried that they may try to attach tinsel to me if I leave the bedroom.
    There's no sport on tv nor any sport of any kind going on in the county. I'm worried about my sanity, especially as it's only 1st December. Can you suggest what I might do?

    Yours

    If I could handle the hangovers it might be. :)
    Then there's the hour and a quarter walk back from the nearest pub. I guess I could drive down and drink coke and watch Sky there.

    I'd suggest a family swap, but to be honest you'd be in exactly the same boat. :mad:
    Had to organise who was vising who @ Xmas about 3 months ago. Apparently I'm the Grinch because I think there's no need to turn Xmas into a 6 week event o_O

    Laudanum. Will take the edge off. Keep chanting "Victor Adeboyejo" repeatedly. I think you'll be fine then.
