Michael: The trouble with Christmas holidays is that they're over too fast! Lawrence: Yeah. Elly: The trouble with Christmas holidays is that they last too long!
I’m with Elly. Actually I don’t consider New Year’s a real holiday. What’s to celebrate, so it’s the first day of a new year. It’s an excuse for people to take two weeks off work and then if you need a particular service you have to wait til they decide to get back to their office. It’s stupid.

No I’m not a humbug, not where Christmas is concerned, only new year’s. I definitely celebrate Christmas and it’s true meaning.
