Your Christmas Survival Plan?

[DandyCobalt]

Family descending on you. Children around a lot more. All rooms occupied. In-laws wanting to watch their programmes.

Any suggestions most welcome for keeping sanity...and I don't have a shed.

So far it's been:

Pair of Audio Technica ES7's in October

Sony XBA3's ordered in November, eventually delivered in December

Job to deliver 1970's themed party music for friend's 40th over Christmas (Spotify Premium playlist)

'mix CD' for colleagues' early commute

Research into possible music streamer purchase

Saying "can't do that tonight love, I'm working on a playlist/speccing a venue/etc."

Nope, suffer like the rest of us.

Suppose you could find a big, open fireplace and crawl up the chimney: The Grate Escape.

Now you mention it I really should write that in my card to the parents, my dad would wet himself laughing.

My stepdads in hospital with terminal cancer, and due to work I can't be with my family over Xmas.

I would trade with most of you
