Now I don’t know about you, but for me the magic has rather gone out of Christmas and I’m quite glad when the whole thing is over and done with, but believe it or not a Wiltshire man is so hooked on Christmas that he’s been celebrating it EVERY DAY for the last 22 years.
Every day he stuffs himself with 25 mince pies and a full turkey, watches recordings of Top of the Pops Christmas specials and especially the Queen’s Speech which he sets to run precisely at 3pm every afternoon. He then opens prezzies he’s sent himself after pulling crackers – 40 of them!
Over the years the habit has cost him a cool £2m with £500 alone spent on Christmas decorations and as for presents, well he’s lashed out on designer shirts, flashy guitars, even a penny farthing. His most extravagant purchase was a £26,000 Mercedes 350 bearing the number plate MR XMAS.
But with money running short and his health affected by all that gorging he says that he’s going to kick the habit this Boxing Day.
Whilst this guy is busy trying to re-live his own version of Groundhog Day, another worthy from Nashville thought he could use his car to enter a “time portal” but succeeded only in demolishing a tax office and a coffin makers business. He was lucky not to end up in one, methinks.
