Must admit I found working over xmas knocked all the goodwill out of me at the time. Worst were the domestics between drunken adults that left young children cowering in bedrooms on xmas eve or christmas day.

Or the road accidents....

We were very busy due to the skeleton staff we had on as it cost too much to keep a full shift at work due to BH pay.

But now I relish every xmas at home with my teenage kids and try to make up for lost time.

I would have swapped any late turn with chunky for a day at Mallory Park!!
