It’s Christmas and after our recent Twitter party with #Toyota12daysXmas, we discovered what you want most of all this festive season.
This year Toyota has gotten in the mood with its 12 Days of Christmas video – a mashup that features what some people want this year instead of the 12 geese a laying. (Look closely and you’ll see some BritMums bloggers with their families!)
So here’s what you said you were looking forward to:
Family time
1. What I really want is just to spend time with the family and relax together. @Tina_i_am
2. I just want everyone to enjoy their family and friends. Life is far too short, this year has taught me that! @MummyVsWork
3. I want my daughter to have a magical first Christmas. @thisdayilove
4. REALLY want a peaceful Christmas, lots of time as a family and creating some nice memories of 2012. @_TeamLloyd
Family reunions
5. I want an air ticket to go back to Singapore to visit my family! @etspeaksfrom
6. I would like my daughter and grandchildren to come visit. Hopefully the weather stays like this @hudjo
The serious stuff
7. Somewhere to live! Son, DH and I all living/sleeping/eating in 1 room together in emergency temp accommodation. @mummyglitzer
8. I’d like to be able to give my mum another 5 years with my nan who has terminal cancer, or even just 1 more 🙁 @kellymarie6262
Couple time
9. A night out without the kids @Vikki_Louise

Health

A better world
16. My Xmas Wish is that the stigma of mental illness finally breaks down. @TheRealSupermum
