  Deck the halls with bows of holly - tis the season to be jolly... Oh really? Face the facts, Christmas is the central festivity of our over indulgent lives because beneath the surface gloss it is, in essence, a celebration of stress. Not enough money, not enough time, not enough chairs for everyone to sit on. Too many presents to get, too many relatives to invite, too many things to get into the oven at the same time. So, I urge you to wake up and smell the turkey curry and do all that you can to encourage the generation of stress both in yourself and in those around you this Festering Season with Rohan Candappa's hysterically funny account of the true meaning of Christmas! Remember that the farther you have to travel on Christmas Day, the more likely you are to argue. Plan your day accordingly. At selected moments try to spoil everyone's Christmas Day by bringing religion into it. Watch the Christmas edition of Top of the Pops . Lament the lack of real songs/tunes/stars. Then contemplate the fact that you've turned into your dad/mum!
