I have just added up all the people I have bought christmas presents for and the total is... 25!

I have also had 3 big family birthdays in December and 2 in November!

I do not want to think about how much I have spent on presents, is this a normal number of people to have to buy presents for?

How many, not how may! I blame the mulled wine.

18 I want to, 2 I'm ambivalent about and 2 that my mothers been trying to get out of since before I was born.
DH, DD1, DD2, me, DSIL, DN Dniece, DM, DDad, DSis, three adult friends and five friends DCs. Those are the people I want to give presents.
Clearly BIL gets a gift, but I don't partially like him, but DSIL and their DCs are lovely so it's not really my buisness. Also a cousins little boy I never see because she sends things to my two.
She is the eldest daughter of the uncle and aunt who insist on exchanging gifts even though we never see them.
These gifts are always weird and as I say my mum has been trying to instigate an end to them for over 40 years.

42, with a quick tally on the ol' fingers.
