have you received any yet, much too early usually. We have, but all is forgiven as it was from friends in Australia, and it came with a beautiful calendar, and knowing the post system, they probably thought it best to send it now. I was in the process of sending them a letter and a card, so hope it gets there before Christmas.
well i only accept that this one was from good friends far away, and as has happened in the past, some were posted several weeks before and they didn't get there in time.
''What's up with trying to brighten up these dull dark days? ''
Our neighbour put a string of Christmas lights in her bush 2 weeks ago. Sadly they are solar powered and as there's been little sun they flicker feebly for about 10 minutes a day before expiring.
Agree with BOO, nothing sad at all about trying to brighten up dark winter evenings. They come down all too soon. Love all the twinkling lights and while I don't put mine up till December, I have nothing against those that do.
