'I want to spend Christmas Day alone but my mum's insisting she comes over - I'm fuming'

While the majority of us imagine spending Christmas Day surrounded by family or close friends, a woman is elated about the idea of spending the most festive day of the year completely alone. The mum has revealed that she's "so excited" to have a day away from the children and a simple lie-in.

However, her solo plans have been quickly scuppered as her mum is now insisting on coming over. Taking to Mumsnet, the woman admitted that she wants no company while she has a "nice quiet day where [she] can eat c**p foods and drink too wine".

She explained: "This year is the first year I've been alone at Christmas in maybe four years."
