– A week gone already.
– Yes. Can't wait.
– Can't wait? For Christmas?
– Definitely. All the preparations in hand, nothing more to do but put my feet up, get out the sherry and mince pies, and settle down in front of a few classic seasonal movies.
– Really? Everything done already? On the seventh of December?
– When you're organised, it's not a big deal. A quick trip around the shops. A pile of presents wrapped under the tree. Fridge stocked up till the middle of January.
– I'm glad to hear it... It makes me feel somewhat -
– Indequate?
– Well, perhaps a little slow off the mark.
– Not to worry. Have you thought about stuffing the turkey yet?
– What turkey?
– Peeling the sprouts?
