[johnny.5]

[zebo]

I recall when I was still at the chalkface we were booking Chritmas meals out before Easter!

[sherrardk]

This was for Christmas meals - although the Christmas movie channel is starting up again soon.

I bought 'er indoors's Christmas present a while ago, as well as a small one for the first born.

I swear the wish savings adverts start in like February

[nailit]

Its all mad.
I try to dissociate myself from society nowadays because its all so fekin mad/sick/obscene/greedy/wrong, etc

But I am labelled as having a personality disorder because I see through this sh t .

The savings adverts for 2020 will start around November!

[sherrardk]

I understand that the savings adverts have to come out early otherwise they wouldn’t work, but at this rate they’ll be advertising all things Christmassy all year round.

oh gosh, better get the sprouts on x

[ummmm]

I suppose people have to think in advance. Some people would have finished their xmas shopping months ago.

Personally, I don't join in as a rule. I like the family dinner, even when the food is crap but I don't do cards or presents.

Please please please don’t turn this into a Xmas thread ::(. Nice to see you back ummmm .

[ummmm]

Thanks Anne :-)

No, too early for me.

[Mamyalynne]

I can and do access Christmas craft supplies all year, get reminder emails too - you can't do everything last minute.

Lovely that you're back with us Ummmm.x

first thing I do on Boxing Day is go to the sales and buy next year's Christmas cards from the remainder bins. Gets me out of the house.
