Merry Christmas …<br />
...and welcome to our biggest <strong>issue</strong> of the year!<br />
164 pages packed with everything you need to make<br />
this Christmas extra special. As well as your usual<br />
Yours favourites we have two extra sections so there’s<br />
even more to enjoy. Our 8-page Make Christmas Easy<br />
section (p75) is stuffed with tips and tricks to take<br />
the stress out of the season and the 20-page Festive<br />
Puzzling Fun section (p115) is crammed with<br />
brainteasers that will keep you busy for hours.<br />
We also have gorgeous party looks (p32),<br />
tried and tested festive food (p59), seasonal<br />
mood boosters (p44), handmade decorations<br />
(p86), beauty gifts for every budget (p39) and<br />
lots of fun things to do for all the family (p101).<br />
But we also know that for some, Christmas<br />
can be a difficult time, especially<br />
those on their own. If you are facing a<br />
lonely Christmas, turn to page 69 to<br />
find scores of people looking for likeminded<br />
friends to spend Christmas<br />
with this year.<br />
