Christmas 2022 moan thread…

bails - see the positive; lock doors, close curtains, disconnect landline, turn mobiles off, turn lights off.
Take care of each other.
Perfect!

Spending 4 days stuck inside a summerhouse in Denmark with the inlaws. 11 people uncluding 5 kids is extremely claustrophobic, especially when the weather is so bad. At least I can't understand what they are talking about.
Disappeared for a few hours this afternoon to get my head down only for my wife to tell me I might as well drive home to the uk as I'm so miserable.
No shit, this is the worst Christmas blues I've ever experienced. Can't imagine what it would be like without Citalopram.

First cold I’ve had in three years…but

Went to the beach to walk the dog and then popped into to see a 90-year old woman who lives on her own in a remote cottage – feeling very virtuous.

given your post on the cold thread, still feeling virtuous…

Somehow missed this thread and an opportunity to moan.

People who view all makes and models of a given type of product as mutually interchangeable. They have the good sense and generosity to ask me what I'd like as a gift, then proceed to buy something similarish at similar or even higher cost. To them, all cycling gloves are the same, all hex keys and bit sets are the same, and all LED torches are the same. These things aren't groceries!
