Poll: Are you looking forward to Christmas?

For some it’s the highlight of the year; for others, an annual nightmare. Where do you stand?

THE LIGHTS ARE up, the songs are on heavy rotation, (some of) the presents are bought – Christmas is less than two weeks away.

For some, the holiday season is something to look forward to – an opportunity to take time out; celebrate with family and friends; eat, drink and be merry.

For others, it’s an annual headache. It can be a time of family tensions and stressful situations, as well as an extra financial burden for hard-pressed households.

So where do you stand? Are you looking forward to Christmas this year?
