It's either raining so hard that the last thing you feel like is getting out of bed and dealing with cooking Christmas dinner and a household of guests; the lure of staying put with a glass of good wine, a plate of Christmas mince pies and a good book having far more appeal.
Or if it's not raining, it's so hot that instead you want to retreat to a deck chair under a shady tree, wearing as little as possible with the mince pies, cold drink and a good book close on hand rather than stand over a hot stove cooking a 10 pound turkey with all the trimmings.
Either way it just doesn't feel like Christmas.
Where's the carollers wandering the streets, the mulled wine, the roaring fire, the reindeer and more importantly, the snow.
This is the Christmas of my dreams. The Christmas that every holiday season movie and TV Christmas special has fueled,
One day I'm going to have my Christmas fantasy but until them I'm going to enjoy the time off work, visit friends and family, read a ton of books and watch my fill of Christmasy movies.
