Driving home for Christmas

[venta]

Last week, I invited people to swap Christmas traditions. There weren't many takers, so I present here a small selection of traditions anyone can choose from.

1. Read 101 Dalmations.
2. Buy a new bauble for the tree.
3. Read Tolkien's The Father Christmas Letterson Christmas Eve, preferably an illustrated edition.

(These traditions belong to huskyteer, lnr and me, respectively.)

Let me know if you give any of them a whirl. Especially if you're currently gritting your teeth for a Christmas with not-especially-compatible relations (in which case, my sympathy!)

I'm currently indulging in another Christmas tradition, that of being in crap traffic on the M1. I don't recommend it at all.

Fleeing the country probably hit both the "expensive" and "hard to organise" barriers I put in the original post :)

The mincemeat one is a great idea, though. I don't really like mincemeat, but rapperaddict keeps telling me I should try Tudor-style mince pies.

Dare I ask what Bumfest is? Will I regret enquiring?
