School Christmas Fair - love it or hate it?

My DDs' is tonight. They are busy excitedly getting ready. I love their faces as they go around, seeing FC in the grotto, getting their faces painted, winning daft prizes on even dafter games.

But I hate it at the same time. The school is pretty open plan in a lot of parts, but in their wisdom they create narrow pathways using tables to tunnel you whichever way they want you to go. It is irritating and, I am sure, not always safe to have so many people in such a small space but is the same every year.

We are wise to it now though. Hang coats on the kids pegs and go around in t shirts so as not to overheat, take a carrier each to cart all the loot they buy/win around with them. Visit the most popular stalls before queueing for things like face painting and FC so that everything isn't gone by the time you get there.

Off we go!

Hate it with a vengeance.

After a couple of hours bending over to pick up the beanbags on splat the rat I can hardly walk.

Also hate the way the way our kids go mental and want more,more,more.

Bah,Humbug!
