Before I became self-employed, I used to work Christmas day and Boxing day too , but at least I used to be paid double time .
It still makes me laugh when you see people stacking their trolleys up in the supermarket on Christmas Eve, as if there is going to be a food shortage after Christmas .

....LOL...It can be like a wrestling match in the aisles sometimes...LOL...
A few years back, I did a spot of taxi driving over Christmas. Morrisons had just opened in Rochdale that year and people were queueing up to get in at 6.30 am on Christmas Eve .

Bloody hell, that must have cost a fortune .
Me and the Missus have Christmas well sorted. On the 25th my Sister feeds us and on the 26th either the Mother-in-Law or the Sister-in-Law does it .
