    I'd love to have a job to go to. Lost my job last December and haven't got anything since. Didn't even get the Christmas bonus as you need to be on the dole 15 months (which 90% of people dont realize). Same with fuel allowance, you need to be a year on it so I havent got that either last winter or this one. Has made for 2 pretty crappy Christmases in a row as every penny had to be stretched, no nights out (i dont drink anyway but still couldnt even justify pub prices for soft drinks, had to decline every invitation to go anywhere), no presents that i could be proud to give, can barely afford to heat the gaff and I couldnt wait for it to be over. Oh, and I got the flu too.

    But I'm sorry the sight of Christmas lights makes you sad while you're in work that must be so hard for you.

    Sunday night is going to be crippling levels of depression before going back to work Monday.

    To others, that's called a night off the booze
