Cheesy footballs with cheese paste centres. Never had them since! The festive trauma of empty wrappers back in the aftereight box. So disappointing when there were no chocolates left…… https://t.co/BexFQMqIbl

A Rudolf the Red-nosed Reindeer arrived overnight with the presents every Christmas & went on 12th Night. He grew a little each year as I grew, until I was about 6. When I cleared my parents' loft years later, there were 5, carefully preserved, inflatable reindeer.

One reply was a little sad, but summed up the importance of family at Christmas.
