Christmas poll

[slemslempike]

I hope that you all had nice Christmases if you do Christmas. I quite enjoyed myself. I got to play my new version of Trivial Pursuit (deluxe, where you have an "abbot" that goes round the edge and gets you new skills, and different levels of difficulty for each question), and Bananagrams, which rocks. I am now back in Lancaster being a bit ill and enjoying my Christmas presents. Also I bought a hat.

For people who also do Christmas in the present getting sense:

[Poll #1113612]

I do realise that this poll doesn't allow for people not having had stockings. This is as it should be. I don't want to know of such deprivations.

The stocking presents when I was a kid supposedly came from Father Christmas but my brother and I never believed. It was traditional for us to build "Father Christmas traps", to try and catch our parents, by putting bubblewrap on the floor or attaching noisy items to our doors, heh. Then there was the year my very surprised parents woke up to discover that they both had pillow cases full of presents from Father Christmas. We were always a non-standard family.

My parents do their stockings/pillowcases to each other, and always did when we were growing up as well, but I think I thought our stockings were properly from Father Christmas for quite some time.
