It doesn't seem to stop @outlander

At least I caught up on my ironing today. Did it whilst watching a chrissy movie so was bearable!

Re: not coping

I have wrapped up everybody's chrissy presents except for the kids @outlander

Will probably do them over the weekend or early next week. I will probably watch a movie whilst doing them.

Do you have any favourite chrissy movies?
