Introduction

No one understands why I don't seem to worry that I have not started Christmas shopping. It's just that I make up my mind what I want to buy and just go out and buy it!

Eleven Months

Here I am, it's christmas time,
The panic's setting in.
No presents bought and not a thought,
Of how I can begin.

The wife's worn down her finger nails,
Is worried half to death.
I'm nagged of course, she's shouted horse,
And constant out of breath.

Can't understand that I don't care,
That nothing has been done.
To off and go and spend our dough,
On the daughter and the son.

He that can't get off his arse,
And force him self to shop.
To stop and think, and beer not drink,
Buy mum that purple top.

Consider what his sister wants,
Or what to buy for dad.
Oh the strain, the strain, he's now in pain,
The thought just makes him mad.

Couldn't stand the crowds says he,
Heads straight back to his room.
Back on the net, with no regret,
Music turned to sonic boom.

She wonders why I always claim,
There's no month that starts with "D".
With no December, just remember
What a peaceful time there'd be !!!!
