It’s Christmas and it is in the air, all around!
Everywhere you go Christmas has arrived in full swing. Shopping malls are dressed up for the occasion, TV adverts are on full blast and Christmas specials are piling up.
Oh it’s the most wonderful time of the year.

People are complaining about this being one of the most stressful times of this year.
There is no money for a proper holiday, Christmas bonuses are paying off old debt and whatever little we save from the petrol price drop is just going to be spent on E-tolls.
Maybe it is not the most wonderful time of the year?
Something to think about, don’t you think?
