Collage from the light show

I thought some might identify with this from Wendy Cope in today’s Guardian. Others will deem me the bad fairy at the party. But sadly it is still relevant in many if not most households.

“A lot of men love Christmas: the gathering of the clan,
But still it’s mostly women who have to think and plan.
So much to organise, to shop for and remember -
Hard work that occupies the best part of December.
I don’t enjoy it, but I do the best I can.
How to have a happy Christmas? Be a man.”

You have to laugh.
