Christmas Or Birthdays?

[Ric.ror]

Which do you prefer?
We have come to the conclusion we prefer Christmas and then childrens birthdays to our own - most be the lead up and all the preparation that invloves

Christmas, everybody is still skint when it's my birthday two weeks after Christmas.

[Ric.ror]

Tony - you should celebrate a half birthday then - we just discussed this here at work
A colleagues daughter was born on 24 Dec

[tonyav]

Good idea, Ric.ror.

[Stephen_G]

Neither.

Christmas is a time for kids and to be a kid. Birthdays are a pain in the backside.

Christmas is my fave time of year. My birthday is in June, but I can do without it!

[Ric.ror]

My birthday is in May and its a nice little way to split the year up

[tonyav]

Fancy a swop then vodkancoke.

If I had to choose then it would be Christmas - Stepdad died on my 40th birthday and my wife died the day after my 55th so don't celebrate birthday now.

[vodkancoke]

Yes! I've always wanted a Christmas birthday! lol

[tonyav]

Righto then vod, it's a deal.

[Ric.ror]

Oh Welshy I'm sorry to hear that
Perhaps you could use the date to celebrate the time you had with her - maybe do something you always wanted to do togther

[WELSHYORKIE]

On the first anniversary last year, I took some flowers to the grave then went for a drive down our favourite route through the North Wales mountains to Betws y Coed and had the biggest strawberry sundae in Cadwaladrs (Welsh Ice Cream company) they had to offer - enough for the both of us!!

Christmas is ok, but I hate birthdays. Birthdays are for children.
