defrosted the decorations
stuffed the table plan
put all the presents up
posted the food
warmed the tree
wrapped the cards
arranged the invites
prepared the king
pealed the booze
watched the sprouts
...had a glass of cranberry sauce
stuffed the mother-in-law
got the pigs-in-blankets out of bed
went to nine carol concerts
eight Christmas markets
had seven panic attacks
six gin and tonics
and five gold rings
tripped over my shoe laces
fell into the tree
poked myself in the eye with the fairy
and singed my eyebrows on the flambed Christmas pudding...
so err...
bring on Easter!
