all 'events' seem to be getting earlier each year, it's far too commercial now, too much sell, sell, sell.

Chell in the Tesco I go to, they will be putting out the first Easter eggs in the days between Boxing day and New Years eve - same as they've done the last 2 years (could be more) just across the isle from the christmas bargains they are clearing out - the whole thing gets devalued and brought down to ££££££££££s IMHO.

They should have the decency to wait until after Rememberance Day to switch on any christmas lights. I don't even think they can use the excuse that they are on for Diwali which is also celebrated at this time of year, as it was early this year on 26th Oct (next year it will be 13th Nov) which it what some councils have done in the past.
