Spooky Holidays

[JHyde]

You do incredibly well most times, Beatriz. Better than some of us who speak it as our first language!

The youngest in big families is always a little more world weary when it comes to Father Christmas. I'm the second of 5, so by the time there were four of us packing the youngest's sack......it got a bit noisy in the early hours of the morning. Having said that, the best thing about Santa is that you get your presents before the rest of the family sit around and do them in the early afternoon. We always opened them later and later it seemed.

My mother used to be really tasteful when it came to christmas decorations, but these last few years she's been compelled to buy those stupid bobbing singing stuffed animals. Is this something that happens with older women? Very weird.
