;D everything that needs doing, making, producing, growing, slaughtering, giving, etc etc can't be done in the last week of Xmas. There isn't time. Miserable bugger. ;D

However, I hate being disturbed of an evening. Especially by door to door types, charity's, god botherers and don't get me started on salesman.
".... I'm from blah, can I interest you in blah, it's..."
"can I just stop you there for one second?"
"silence"

.....and close door. :)

I always say to salespeople: "I won't waste your time, and where I'm very busy I don't want you waste mine as I never buy anything at the door".

Energy supplier salesmen can be a bit more persistent, so I ways: "Have you heard of Uswitch" They always reply "Yes", to which I reply "So, have I and I know how to use it, goodbye".

If it is a charity, I always say: "I have charities I give to and yours is not on my list, so sorry no, goodbye"

And on the subject of charities, the beeb should be fined a crippling amount for Children In Need.  They have far more clout to get that charity more recognition that any other, and at other charities expense.

In effect, CIN get about a month's worth of free advertising for at least 30mins a day, and then a 5 or 6 hour long advert.

Bloody disgrace.
