Down with Christmas

So it's that time of the year again. I rush around like a blue-assed fly trying to get done all the things that need doing. Then we buy lots of pressies for people who don't want or need them and they do the same for us. What is the point? I like the idea of it being a midwinter feast, but it's summer here so that's out.
Next year I'm boycotting Christmas - feel free to join me!
