Janet and Keiths Christmas card. Everyone knows me now for giving to charity instead of sending cards. I know it's nice to remember people but can't we remember people all year rather than just a Christmas cards. I still receive Christmas cards from people whom I used to work with - people who we were friends with many years ago, yet non of them pick up the phone to see if we are EVEN still alive! I do find the idea of everyone sending hundreds of Christmas cards willy-nilly at this time of year just a terrible terrible waste of money, money that could be going to better causes. I shall send £20 to Breast Friends (in Vivs name this year) Happy Christmas Viv, wherever you are mate.

I can see your point, but still like to get a few cards... the problem with being overseas is that I send them to everyone at home which costs me a fortune as I end up with International postage for the whole lot and very few people bother to send to me - when they would just have the one pricey to stamp to buy... :(
I love the fact you give to charity instead and that people should remeber each other throughout the year rather than just christmas. I just send to close family and the boys send to children in their class but thats it, mines just coz i'm tight though lol
I do see your point. I love sending cards and I must admit I send alot to Belgium as we have loads of relations in Belgium. On New Years Eve or New Year morning the families gather round 2 phones normally its my mothers over here and her Uncles over in Belgium to toast the New year. And one very big phone bill.
