So this is Christmas?

I'm watching Dr Who Christmas special on TV, well, not watching it so much as I'm writing is post at the same time.

Just wanted to say Hi! , Merry Christmas, hope you spent the day with family and friends and had a lovely time.

I got a bit annoyed by the news tonight, the second lead story was the post Christmas sales in Sydney, I don't know about you but I feel this over consumption thing is getting really bad. Here we are the day after Christmas and people were lining up at 2-3 am (YES AM) to be the first into a department store to spend more money on things they probably don't need (I'm making a judgement call here).

What do you think? Do you think we should have at least a couple of days where we can't (or need to?)  shop?


Merry Christmas!
