Easy there Maurice, Santa may look a bit gay but I'm sure it's supposed to be the jolly kinda gay....

Seems that some of you see Christmas as the retailers want you to see it. In commercial terms. That this has determined your outlook on the festive season, can in my opinion, mean only one thing: they have won.

I'm sorry that people need a 'season' to be nice. It is not the only time of year that family bonding takes place in our house. We don't see any more (or less) of our extended family than we do at any other time of the year. I have family all over NZ and we see them as often a we can, and I'm not 'made of money'. For those that have passed we remember them regardless of whether it's xmas or not.

To speak of cynicism (reading between the lines) I am not cynical about xmas just realistic. Commercial retailers want people to feel "It's a time of sharing that is reinforced by the giving of gifts." because it opens their wallets and they spend more. If retailers wanted people to feel good without purchasing goods then would there be so many mailers and advertising?

Just who is being cynical? The light in a childs face does not have to burn for such a short time. As a caring parent I spend time with my kids in the good times and the bad. It is naive to belive that childhood innocence can last forever but to say that their "flame" will be lost is cynical.

Is there not innocence in birdsiong in the morning? Or lambs playing? Or watching your kids discover something new? My kids are 15 and 11 and there is an innocence of discovery and happiness of family that I hope will never be lost. That has nothing to do with xmas.

The merchandising never worked with us - present limit was the $2 shop! Having no money helped,

, but, with us, any time, was xmas time......If it werent for the grand daughter, Xmas would slip past, nearly unnoticed, on the shopping front..

Tis the season of good will to all. Generally go along with all that you say.

Everday is Christmas day for me. It's just as you get older Christmas days are becoming fewer so when the real one come I make the most of them.
