I'm a bit Hmm about people passing off the ISS as 'santa' actually. It's an amazing thing in its own right with 11 people on board doing a risky job and away from family for Christmas and beyond.... Seems unfair people are just interested for one day

You loathe people, presumably friends, sharing with you something they think you might like to know about?

Please be my friend, please. I don't have enough people like you in my life!!! Thanks Thanks Thanks

Perhaps you should just "fuck off". Remove yourself from the situation and their lives

Yes it's a bit grumpy. I remember a few months ago my mum raving about how you could get completely free super saver delivery on Amazon :) I rolled my eyes a bit but it's sweet surely?

A bad night's sleep? Our children are older, we passed that stage years ago.

we have to wait SO BLOODY LATE for s1 to go to sleep. I suggested stockings might be downstairs this year. S2 complained he would have to WALK to get it.
