Two decades down the line. Your Short One and his new family are spending Christmas day at his parents in law. His wife's cousins / ants/ grandparents are also invited.

His thoughts : "What a tiresome circus. All this pissed drunken folk getting on my nerves. I count the hours and minutes to get back home, FFS. Where have all those decent, peaceful, quiet and intimate Christmases of my childhood gone? When less was more? When I could spend my time with people that really mattered to me? My lovely mum? When I felt like someone was really paying attention to me, instead of "trying to catch up" aka being polite just to stop yawning? Where are all those good days gone...???
