Almost everything about Christmas is torture - the stress of shopping in a town center packed with people desperately looking for the latest techno gadget to ruin their little sods with, the sudden expense of things that were once half that price, the list goes on and on and on and it is totally unbelievable that we put ourselves through it every year. Wrestling with yards of thin and easily damageable wrapping paper is one of the things I most despise but one thing stands out a million miles above all this - CELLOTAPE! Its the same every year. You are desperately trying to stick one darn piece of wrapping paper down and you are unable to keep control of both paper and cellotape and the cellotape collapses and sticks to itself.
Having failed on numerous occasions to find the end so that I can wrestle with the next piece of wrapping paper, I craftily decide to create an end by slicing a line across the roll. Clever me..... I now have another problem because between my new end and the original end, there isn't much cellotape. Anyway, to cut a long moan short, I was thinking of how utterly unbelievable it is that cellotape was ever allowed to exist! What do you guys think?
