Please ignore the morons on the telly telling you “Christmas is over”. There are twelve days of Christmas, starting on Christmas Day and ending on Twelfth Night. This means:
- By all means continue to be merry
- It is still the season of goodwill to all
- Gifts are still quite appropriate
Try “popping” into town today with no fixed goal. You will be the only person who is not hung up on fighting through the crowd to get bargains. Go into the car park and give way to everyone you encounter, with a smile. You’ll make their days.

Due to broken ribs, me smiling at anybody looks like death’s rictus smile. I find this post Christmas shopping binge quite uncomfortable: didnt they spend enough on their nearest and dearest before Christmas? Or are the sales the chance to buy all the things they wanted so badly to be selfish about before Christmas?
Hmm, that could be an interesting variant. Try wearing a black cowl as you do it.
It’s amazing isn’t it? I do get the general aura of hapless desperation from those crowds - and you know that they’re putting it all on the never never…
