Our Christmas lights are up but won't be lit 'til mid-November. Too early, on both counts, for me. As Alison (above) said, mid-November for them going up and switching on at the start of December - fine, plenty of time.

The tv is jam-packed with Christmas ads, they're even trying to get us to start saving for NEXT Christmas already. (Oh, please!) The bumf coming in the post is no better.

What happened to the real meaning of Christmas? Easy, secularism and commercialism got wed and Jesus got chucked out with the bath water.

Don't get me started!
