Re: The C word
Yes Pester power is alive and well at christmas and more powerful than ever.
When we were growing up we knew that we could not afford big price presents.....it did not stop us enjoying Christmas. In those days Christmas was really fun...but with very simple pleasures. Making paperchains.......playing board games and Charades......hunt the thimble, pass the parcel.....statues.
Oh that we could let our children and grandchildren experience something like that.
