2022. What a year.
We took off overseas in droves but sent tennis players packing. It rained like it had never rained before. We said ‘allo Albo and see ya ScoMo. Adele was EVERYWHERE. Interest rates continued to rise. More biblical rain. House prices fell for the first time in what felt like 23 years. Corporate data breaches. Kanye got cancelled.
Celebrity scandals. Economic crises. Natural disasters. This year has had it all.
And what about your own family?
Life is infinitely busy and never more so than at Christmas. But, if you put in some legwork now, perhaps you’ll get a chance on Christmas Day to pause and reflect on all that you and your family have achieved this year.
Our Christmas Guide is here to help you navigate the next few weeks of shopping, socialising, gifting and glamming. With a little planning and preparation, we promise you’ll be easing into the silly season with confidence and calm.
