Maw correct. But my last sentence encompasses both the overeating and the overspending, or it was meant too.
I’m not trying to be a killjoy. But I have memories of Christmases past where men, in particular, seemed to think that Christmas was a time it was acceptable to drink what they wanted. Many a Christmas Day was ruined by the drunken male in the family.
Now it seems that women, are to be encouraged to overeat and overprovide. This is just as likely to ruin Christmas too.
Many have posted about the over commercialisation of Christmas, focusing on how much we are encouraged to spend on presents.
I’m looking at the way we are being manipulated to go OTT on food. More than ever this year with ads showing overladen tables groaning under the weight of food.
