NYE: Still overbooked, overpriced and overhyped

Only 360 shopping days until next December 25! Hopefully by then, your so-called loved ones will have figured out that household utensils or perfume endorsed by someone off Take Me Out is not really what you want from Santa. Or anyone.
Never mind. At least now all that industrial mince pie and factory turkey palaver is out of the way, you can focus on the biggest night of the year, New Year’s Eve. What could be more fun? Apart from Christmas shopping for your most difficult relative at 5pm on December 24.
