Starting to get that build up to Christmas excited feeling. Always coincides with the end of X Factor. The semi-final and final are always the indicators that Christmas is near and I don't know, I've always enjoyed the hype around those couple of weeks. The final is, for me, the TV highlight of the year.

Probably the only one that gets this feeling but oh well

In my household we all panic whenever X Factor returns as for some reason it makes the weeks go by quicker and before we know it it's Christmas

I'm a bit Bah Humbug with Christmas

I know it's probably horrible to say it, but all the hype, dashing around shopping etc, it's far too commercial now. It's over in a flash and then we have dreary January and February looming over us.

I'm always glad when it's over and Spring is on it's way

Well you'll have Christopher's number one single to see you through those dark months until his internationally acclaimed album is released.

LOL!

Oh please, that's enough to make me run for the hills. I can see it now............me sat by the fire.........listening to the dulcet tones of........I saw MeNana Kissing Santa Claus

Blimey I'll give myself nightmares thinking of that. I'm quite prepared to share though, I wouldn't want to deprive you of a bit of the old Maloney

You're not alone. I feel the same around this time every year!
