Christmas Cancelled

[ThisTimeNextYear]

I got a text off of my sister this week saying we willnt be exchanging gifts this Christmas between the adults in our family, although the kids in our brethren will be receiving pressies. It appears that she wants cut costs and stop us 'buying presents for the sake of it'

What does this bourd think off of this turn off of events? Should I kick off or is this a geet idea, giving me more money fer 'entertainment' (beer)?

I quite liked giving gifts that relatives had to show fake joy of receiving.

Its a quandary...

Who has most kids?

[moorlad]

I ofn't given any off of my brothers owt for Christmas for over 30 years.

[moorlad]

In fact I ****ing hate Christmas.

Sister has 2 sprogs...

and I of 1 ... but he's now nearly 15.

[moorlad]

Suggest buying nowt then, even for kids. That'll seriously **** her off of.

We* just buy for the kids between me, me brother and me sister.

Six kids altogether

[Nevermore666]

Buy my sister and her husband but not my brother and his wife on account of them NEVER having bought us and the fact that they are ****s. We don't buy nephews on my side because they're too old but we do buy those on her side cause they're still little kids. We do however buy my great nieces and nephews (all six of em).

[moorlad]

That is just too complicated Beast. My method off of buying nowt is the way to gan.

Still buy your sister and her family presents,you won't receive any back but the pleasure should be in the giving...

When she asks why you bought her a present just say that its because she is your sister and you wanted to,she will really like that
