I can't exactly throwout much this years to friends and loved ones for a couple of reasons.

First obviously being Im out of work, cant afford jack diddly at the moment apart from the Monthly WoW cost and paying my standard living bills, I've only got enough on benefits keep the roof over my head and basic food supply in. Just to clarify this isnt a sympathy call, thats not my style, I just wanted people know if they get me stuff - I can't exactly give much back.

Second reason is my Mother is also out of work due to her workplace going into Liquidation and her last payments are for mortgage cover and whatnot, so even she can't help for Christmas, half of the family that is, well, we're just pulling together for Christmas day.

A Special thankyou to those who have gone out of and do go out of their way to help me through this rough time, Im not all smiles and rainbows unfortunately especially when I cant even go out a local pub for my birthday on Wednesday.

All I can say is, this whole world in debt bollocks, is killing us in North England far worse than the South.

Thanks for Reading.
