Default Spain or the UK for Christmas

I wondered what most of you would be doing for Christmas this year. Will it be here in Spain or the UK sales.Our tree etc will be going up 1st December this year I promise every year but manage to get the decorations etc to Mrs P by the 20th or something like. I hate New Year will be in bed by Half Ten
We are staying here, Mrs Posh is very poikilothermic but the logs have been delivered so Mr Weather bring it on......... A little sun would be nice for our boxing day walk please..

England this year for the 1st time since we moved over

I find Christmas here a bit low key also with Boxing day being a normal working day - and miss all the family at that time of year

3 Kings parades are good though - the Spanish kids get presents that night, in fact they get more presents that night than Chrsitmas, so we´ve been splitting our sons presents between the 2 nights for the last 5 years - when he goes back to school afterwards the kids always discuss what they got at 3kings rather than Christmas - which seemed rather strange to us at first

Merry Chrsitmas everyone - 9 weeks to go
