Christmas adverts how early!

Haha then never look at them again as everything is on the telly menu.

I download all the telly I want and put it through the VLC player to play in the background over Christmas day.

Here are a few of this years selections up to now, I have to download and find another 8 hours worth yet.

The retailers tell us when we should be thinking about Christmas (people have started putting up lights etc) but the day after Christmas they tell it's all over (used to be 12 days) and those who had Christmas lights up since November take them down.

You know Christmas is over when the Knott Mill carpet sales are on and they start pushing summer holidays.

Christmas is whatever you want it to be and whatever you make it. If you let TV advertisers and what retailers do spoil it for you then that's your problem.

Merry Christmas everyone.

Don't buy them then. If everyone ignored the pies when they first come out then they would all go off. Huge loss, not doing that again.
Unfortunately there are shoppers who buy anything new. Like my missus. Oooh mince pies, my husband likes mince pies, I shall buy a pack.

I don’t buy them.

Aldi has been selling Christmas food for over a week including party food. They can stuff it up their shit boxes because I wont be buying any.

It's not Xmas proper yet until you have the TV and radio times at hand where you can circle and plan what to watch over the festive period.

Don’t they both show what’s on the other side anyway? Personally stopped buying either of them, used to get the RT at Christmas when they were forced to have all the channel listings, but realised these days I watch so little stuff and was just circling about three programmes over the festive period.

I think it's just tradition mate, they don't really serve a purpose as such these days they are just a part of Christmas for some people.
