Another thing we have in common!!Halloween is a pile of nonsense.
I despise Christmas.
You see I’m not that bad.Another thing we have in common!!
I like a bit of turkey with my bread sauce.UO - bread sauce is amazing. It’s the best part of Christmas. Bread sauce with stuffing? With roasties? IT IS SO GOOD
i don’t even know but I always had it with vegetarian Christmas dinner (nut roast 10/10) and loved itWhat in the name of Christ is bread sauce?
Ofgem aren't there to protect the consumer. They are there to protect the companies. All of the " of" departments are. None of them work to our favour, the customer..........Ofgem who are supposed to represent the consumer should not have put the energy cap up to such a high level. They have just done what the energy companies who make huge profits wanted them to do. I don’t see how this is not obvious. Keep the cap lower don’t raid government coffers to prop up energy companies problem solved.
Same, I hate having to wear layers just to feel like a normal temperature. duck winter.I hate that summer is nearly over. I hate that the days are getting shorter. I hate that it is going to start getting colder and closer to Christmas. I hate the cold and I hate wearing layers.
Layers make me feel icky. The cold does nothing for me. There is nothing ‘cosy’ about the winter and being cold.Same, I hate having to wear layers just to feel like a normal temperature. duck winter.
i think shops should be shut boxing day! The poor staff that work in retail seem to have no choice of a proper break over xmas!Not sure if I’m explaining this properly so forgive me. The issue imo is that becomes a bit of a class issue to a degree because retail staff don’t get the day off so it’s people that imo don’t really deserve time off (like me, office job, no customers - not in a bank though) when I actually could have really done with the time off when I was in retail. Most retail staff get 1 day off over Christmas and then are normally back in Boxing Day morning. New year is shut if you’re lucky but where I worked never was. We worked until 6pm Xmas eve and then back in 9am Boxing Day. No time off new year. A few days across the year of random holidays would actually have been beneficial. Don’t get me wrong I’m happy to have the extra day off but I feel like it should be spread for everything that’s non essential and not just basically office staff.
On that topic - my UO:
Sundays should go back to being a day of actual rest like it is in European countries. Everything shut including supermarkets. The only thing open are petrol garages. The day is spent dedicated to family, friends and relaxing.
honestly working Christmas Eve to put all the sale signs out for 6am on Boxing Day ruined Christmas for me, I hate it!! And the sales are hardly ever good, just tit gift-sets that nobody needs!i think shops should be shut boxing day! The poor staff that work in retail seem to have no choice of a proper break over xmas!
i know people will say well nurses police etc have to work but their jobs are an essential public service..im sure the general public could cope without camping outside the local next at crack of dawn Boxing day to buy all the crap that no one wanted!
id wish the sales would go back to being January sales again too
Christmas is dreadful for social expectations. I actually detest it. I haven't been to my mums house for Christmas Day in years as my husband and I love to do a fun day at home just the two of us where we watch things and eat what we want and go for a lovely walk and yet every year she gets the same awful expression and asks, shocked, "you're doing Christmas just the two of you?!" we literally couldn't care less about it as a holiday and literally only look forward to the time offI hate Halloween .
I dislike Christmas because of the expectation of it being “the most wonderful time of the year”. Not every family member is even worth seeing or meeting up with. Just reading the thread here is exhausting. Too much family drama if someone with a young baby just wants to do their own thing and not travel miles to see multiple relatives.
It’s okay to be selfish and put yourself first. As women we have been conditioned to put the needs of others above our own. Burn those bridges to cinders if it actually brings you peace.
