Just seen a thread from a post office worker about Christmas post etiquette. Replies were disabled so I'll just add my 2ps here.
please do NOT simply put your wrapped gift in the post. Post COVID I did agency work in a huge sorting warehouse and so many people did this. IT WILL BE DAMAGED.

Me aged 13 using my paper round money to replace the ones I'd inhaled from my mum's Christmas Cupboard. A cycle that took place LOADS of times 😂
Last year, I bought six selection boxes before I managed to keep one intact to give my niece for Christmas. This year I've already smashed five of them down my cakehole, we're still weeks away. I'm surely not alone in this?

We would have to be facing near apocalyptic conditions for me to eat SPAM. That new advert is truly perplexing. The current clientele must be dying of old age and they need to bring in new customers.

Also I have a SECOND glucose test tomorrow to check for gestational diabetes. Baby was big on scan on Thursday. I was quite looking forward to the last one as in my memory they put you on a bed on a ward and you could just nap. That's not the case sadly 😂 I must have dreamt that.

Ahh if anyone needs me to do anything tomorrow then please just don't bother asking. I have bitten my nails so much tonight that tomorrow I expect to have the dexterity of Edward Scissorhands.

Also December is my favourite time of year to work. It can be chaotic especially if the weather takes a turn but the vibe is unmatched. I hate to miss it.

My dad's dogs are well behaved dogs and no trouble but they just follow you from room to room with doleful eyes. If you try and stroke them they trot away. Then they come back and the cycle starts again. ANNOYING.

Made some shortbread before and it was delicious. I could hardly wait for them to cool down before I had 7218 of them. I can't imagine having the skill to make pastry, biscuits are my limit 🤣 #GBBO.

Someone's child was running across the road, looking at the ground. Dad (or whoever he was) looking at his phone. Kids mounts the kerb straight into me. Luckily a car didn't hit him and luckily our collision didn't cause any damage but

Snuggled up on the couch with 3yr old and he is watching The Wrong Trousers for the first time. Hope Feathers McGraw isn't too much for him. He is already sad whenever Gromit is sad outside 🤣🤭♥️

Anyone who gets into bed and simply goes to sleep must be deranged. You're not going to read a book? Listen to a podcast/radio? Scroll? Finish an episode of something? Wild.

This year will be my TENTH year at my airline and I have never worked Christmas. Not for want of trying though. Can you imagine the privilege of celebrating Christmas somewhere different? Most people bring a "cling on" with them to celebrate so it's a whole big vibe.
