My in-laws are at me again for what I want for Christmas. They're very big on gifts. I mostly want some new joy cons for my Switch because mine have surrendered to stick drift. I can't believe they don't sell plain black ones any more.

Anyway, if you're blessed with relatives like mine it's time to start writing your list to Father Christmas even though you're in your thirties and own your own home.

What are you after?

"even though you're in your thirties and own your own home."

What? Where are you living that you can own a home in your thirties?!

Nottingham here.

FYI I managed to save deposit during COVID lockdowns, I actually lost my job again the beginning of lockdown and was unemployed for 3 months, then I managed to save 20k during the next year and a half, which was a little more than 10% of the house price.
