It's not about how much money you spend. It's not about rushing out to the shops and maxing out your credit card. It's about sharing love and warmth and happiness.
I am recently separated and have no money. Not a spare penny. Nope, nothing, zip, zilch, nada. I will not be buying presents for folk this year, and will not be expecting gifts from anyone else. Now, anyone who bleats about me being a cheap skate is not a true friend, and their presence in my home will not be missed.
However, anyone who does favour me with their company will be greeted with a cheery smile (provided by me), a mince pie (kindly provided by my mum), and a cup of tea, or if they prefer a glass of cheap plonk (left over from last years office party).
So, in the word's of some fat guy who's knee I once sat on - MERRY CHRISTMAS - HO HO HO!!!
