They could have been dead since last Christmas..,, but no family or frreinds
November, Nice and early. You like Christmas then ebs?
Yep, love Christmas
Do you like it?
Thankfully not one will go up in this house.
I like it for getting to spend time with family.
Well don't turn the lights on. It'll add to the heat and you'll still be moaning it's too bloody hot.
Bloody ridiculous.
It's not hot in here in the autumn/winter
That we are putting our tree up in November?
Well what do you think?
i haven't had anything close to decorations up in over thirty years
Bloody stupid...
Christmas should only start at the beginning of December at the earliest!
I was putting halloween stock out two days ago. The christmas stock is In the back...
But anybody who puts a tree up before Dec 1st clearly has mental issues...
That reminds me .. I need a tree this year .
Well I call 67f /19c hot that is what you said your flat is in winter
That we are putting our tree up in November?[/QUOTE]
My Brother is playing Christmas music now as to him there is only two times of the year Summer and Christmas now he knows Summer is over and he's not going to the beach ect to him Christmas is on it's way.
Right.. How about Halloween ?
No Christmas stuff at work yet, we got gift health and beauty gift sets, but they are year round thing really. Our warehouse is not that big, so it will be a while before we get much christmas stock in, not untiul we get a container to put it in.
Halloween we got, not much, but a little bit, we will get more in soon. Fireworks is the next thing, a pain in the backside, I thought the government would have banned them by now.
Mr Christmas
Andy Park has eaten 135,000 sprouts, 107,000 mince pies and drank 6,000 bottles of champagne since 1994.[3] He plans to marry the holiday decoration because he is completely obsessed with all things relating to Christmas.[4] Over the years he has sent himself more than 235,500 Christmas cards.[5]
In 2001, it was estimated that since he started celebrating he had got through 30 artificial Christmas trees, 10,000 m of tinsel and 10,000 balloons, at a (then) estimated cost of £100,000. In 2005, he released a single entitled "It's Christmas Every Day", with a video featuring Mike Read and produced by Andy Whitmore. There were suggestions in the media that much of the information released by Mr Park was false, and simply to attract publicity for the single:
He claims that each day he eats breakfast (turkey sandwich and mince pies), then goes to work, until returning around at lunchtime to eat a full roast turkey dinner before watching a recording of the Queen's Christmas speech, sherry in hand. In 2006, it was reported that the Queen had politely declined an invitation to broadcast her speech from his house.
In an interview published in 2006, Mr. Park was quoted as saying that, over the previous 13 years, he had consumed 4,380 turkeys (one a day), 87,600 mince pies (20 a day), 2,190 pints of gravy (half a pint a day), 26,280 roast potatoes (six a day), 30,660 stuffing balls, 219,000 mushy peas, 4,380 bottles of champagne, 4,380 bottles of sherry and 5,000 bottles of wine. However, in 2001, he was warned by his doctor that the diet was affecting his health after his weight increased to 19 stone (270 lb; 120 kg).

We don't really go nuts over Halloween in the UK not like the US anyway.
I love it it's my 2nd favourite time of year.
I dine think it's ridiculous
Halloween is the time I have make excuses why I can go to my ex's Halloween Party.
She thinks she's the queen of Halloween, but her parties are shit.
Everyone sat in a circle in the attic of her mothers house, smoking pot in the dark. Listening to shit punk and metal bands and drinking milk-shake based cocktails.
There usually a good spread. but, other then that I find them rather depressing....
