Things that should be punishable at Christmas! (light hearted)

Nina ?they sound like ones to avoid!
I feel the same as you if somebody is introduced as a ‘real character’.......groan!

Who's !!

People who exclaim " I'm mad, me, I am ", then give you a sort of searching look as if to invite a response as to why they are mad, them, they are! Just get over yourselves; whose interested anyway ?

Those annoying relatives who monopolise the conversation and only EVER want to talk about themselves!

My daughter piling my huge dinner plate sky high with food. Yes, I did eat that much without indigestion, - in the past. Now, I'll still try to eat it all - then suffer the consequences1

Those asking 'What time are we eating?

Oh yes Gagajo!

My brother in law ( the same one mentioned earlier) was guilty of this many years ago. He stormed into the kitchen and pointed out there was four women in there and where was the food.

You can imagine the looks he got.

Falling asleep and snoring.

Not that I'm guilty but my brother in law did that one year

I thought his teeth were going to fall out

People who turn up with streaming cold, high temperature and explosive sneezes rather than stay home because they ‘don’t want to let you down’. They then spend hours telling everyone how ill they feel while touching every piece of food on the buffet although they insist they are too ill to eat. Oh please do let me down, no one wants to spend the next two weeks feeling dreadful.

People who drop in unannounced in the late afternoon, say they only came to wish me a very quick merry christmas and aren't stopping and then stay and talk and talk until I'm almost asleep.

Yes, lemongrove - them too. Sheesh - either come in or go away !

Neighbours at the door who say ‘ No, I won't come in’ then keep you jawing away on the doorstep for a good ten mins whilst the door is letting all the heat out!
Carol singers who belt out two lines of silent night ( noisily and flat) then bang on the door.
Postmen who screw envelopes up almost in half to get them through the letterbox, so that the card inside is ruined.Grrrr,
Bah! Humbug.

EllaKeat there should be a special kind of hell set aside for them!

Those asking 'What time are we eating?'

If you REALLY want to eat sooner rather than later, get in the kitchen and HELP.

Those who seem to perfectly time the 'any chance of a cuppa ?' to when you have just sat down ... that's also an any time of year punishable thing. Those kind of people should be ejected out of their comfy seat by a mysteriously strong inspector gadget kind of spring.

Yes!
Anyone who thinks it is festive to put loose glitter into an envelope containing Christmas card, in addition to putting said glitter into wrapped parcel should just be shot.
Shot I tell you. No half measures, no nanny pambyism, just about. Dead.

Those who say, oh I’m much too full, after you have made three different desserts, then twenty minutes later clean you out of the quality street!
