How to survive Christmas when it’s also your birthday

WHO doesn’t love Christmas Day? There’s loads of free gifts, you are legally required to overindulge, and you have a free pass to fall asleep in front of the television.
But for a small group of people Christmas Day is a constant disappointment, never living up to its promise.
“I’m all a bit bah humbug,” says David Wilson, a post office manager from Cobargo in southern NSW.
“It’s just too hard basket,” says Bern Sokol, a radio producer from Sydney.
But these aren’t Christmas grinches who turn their noses up at good times with family and friends. Many love a mince pie and a glass of bubbly inappropriately early in the day.
No, these are the people who had this misfortune to their birthday on Christmas Day and have always played second fiddle to the little baby Jesus.
