For the last three years I have worked it, and the only thing I enjoy about Christmas, my mums roast, has been saved for me.
Which has been ideal, none of the family stuff but all of the food.
This year very depressingly I’m not working so have to deal with family, and my sister is cooking and it’s not a roast……
