Ja, me too, in a way. I get to thinking about the stuff I am supposed to go out and waste money on so it can clutter up other peoples lives, and how much it all costs, and then consider taking a tent and going to hide out in the forest till it`s all over - except it`s too damn cold out there, and I`d probably get arrested, and embarass my family.I think they all just going to get some smelly stuff to shower with - as a token gesture.
Grandmothers are supposed to be exempt from this type of hype aren`t they?

Mitsos, you are funny!
Easter is even worse, what with the Holy Bunny and his chocolate eggs! Or is that a Holy Chicken? I have seen Holy Chocolate Crocodiles but I think they belong to some ancient tribe that lives by rivers?

Easter in Cyprus means the local kids illegally chopping down a tree near me then building a huge bonfire over the road and roaring up and down the road doing wheelies on their bikes. It's the only act of vandalism I see over here, apart from the grafiti,but the gaps in the trees are increasing every year!
The concept of Christmas a celebration of a religious event has been overtaken by sheer commercialism and greed and that is why I find it so depressing.

I kinda agree with you as far as commercialism but its in ones heart to celebrate or not(i think)
mitsos: INNJOY
Thank you for the song, never heard it before, rather cheerful, isn’t it?

The more integrated I become into the Swiss way of life, the more I find to enjoy!
Here Christmas is really nice, not commercial at all, at least not in my part of this country.
Families gather on Christmas eve to eat a traditional meal and give each other small gifts. And Christmas day itself is a day of rest, attending a church service (if so inclined), and socialising with all ones friends. A day of no work, not even for the housewives as all the food preparation has been done, and the kitchen has boxes of "Guetzli`s" to eat while sipping (homemade)wines, and/or coffee with (homemade) Schnapps.
Tulefel: Thank you for the song, never heard it before, rather cheerful, isn’t it?

Another one I never heard about, and perhaps it was the best way to have it.
