- The smell of a real Christmas tree. I do love our plastic one but the smell of a real one can't be beaten.
- Tacky Christmas jumpers. Sequins? Check. Sparkles? Check. Plays music? Even better.
- Hilarious attempts at wrapping oddly shaped presents.
- Having the excuse to eat lots of cheese.
- Spending time with family.
- Taking the dog out on a walk and delivering Christmas cards.
- Fairytale of New York. Ultimate Christmas song.
- Edinburgh's Christmas market.
- Really cute wrapping paper. Extra points if it features dogs, penguins or really cute illustrations.
- Brie and cranberry toasties(although I do enjoy these all year round).
- Old Christmas decorations that are old and boring, but no one can bear to chuck out.
- ELF.
- Michael Buble's Christmas album.
- When someone buys you a present that is 'so you' that you realise just how well that they know you.
- Not crying at any of the Christmas adverts ever because I'm cold hearted.
- Driving around town with my mum to see all the houses that go all out on their Christmas lights.
- Snuggling with Batdog.
- Christmas candles.
- Getting a massive food baby and then lounging on the sofa after dinner. Drifting off into naps. I mean.... I nap nearly every day. But it feels much better with a full and happy stomach.
- Mince pies.
- Visiting family.
- Hanging tinsel in every possible place.
- Bailey's hot chocolate.
- Being so excited for someone to open their present because you know it's something that they're going to absolutely love!
- Not being able to sleep on Christmas Eve like a child.
