Serves them right, expecting Xmas as early as this.

Not like the good old days, Rampant Consumerism has ruined Xmas.

An unfortunate choice of words in the headline:

"Swansea Christmas parade branded a 'shambles'//

(If you know what "shambles" means, and also know why cities as different as Berlin and Buirmingham have built bollards to protect their Christmas markets.)
Every generation gets it better than the last, so all parents think their children are spoilt compared to what they went though.

In my day we have had just a float pulled by a donkey. If you were lucky. But we were happy.
I don't think it's unreasonable that people were disappointed when the plans were so scaled down, you wouldn't take the children along for that would you.

Soon be forgotten though.
Not quite sure what "dynamic dance troupes" have to do with Christmas - even if they had turned up.
v_e at 21:07, astute.
They weren't expecting "Xmas as early as this", just a half decent parade.
More crocks! Welsh crocks!
If anybody is crocked it's thee.
What spoilt generation?
In my experience pensioners are the very first people to tell it like it is and inform you how *** things are- Christmas Parades included :) x
I'd like to know what generation arranged the parade...
aye, in my day all we had was a puppy with a coathook taped to his head, and the thruppeny bits in the Christmas pud were plastic tiddlywinks counters.
Bound to be teenagers Ummm, I mean everyone knows they're in charge of the council... lol
Lol, Kval, exactly!!!
They'd have done better putting the money spent towards a monorail.
What the hell did you expect? Swansea houses a area called the mumbles.

Sorry, didn't quite catch that.
