Monday 12th December:  Finished buying presents or are you going to be a last minute stressed-out shopper?  Order online to save travelling to the shops and ask everyone what they want.  Easier than them having to return goods afterwards!  There is still time!

Tuesday 13th December:  Having people over on Christmas day? Have your forgotten anyone?  Some relatives or neighbours may be lonely.  This is a time to put any past quarrels to one side and move on.  It can be lonely time for many as well a fun for others.

Wednesday 14th December:  Make a time to wrap your presents and don’t leave it to the last moment.  Have you got the wrapping paper and sellotape at home.  Do you need to buy any boxes for sending presents abroad?

Thursday 15th December: What school clothing do your children need for the next term?  Have they been through a growing spurt?  Some shops will be closed over the holidays, so now is the time to start thinking about it now.  When it comes to the New Year, there will be queues at the school outfitters.
