Christmas decorations all ready

Wednesday is 1st November.

It's fair game from then on as far as I'm concerned. Let the stocking of the Christmas Cupboard commece

I am not a big fan of Christmas. I don't trim the house up and I don't have a light display that is visible from space on the front of my home either.
There is a turkey place on the Louth Road and they have just been told to take their countdown ad down. It's been up since '105 days to Christmas'. The locals are all up in arms about it. I am secretly quite pleased.

I drive up and down that road a few times each week, I forgot all about that sign. Are you local to it?

Is it possible you could have confused 1st November and 1st December?
Please say "yes".

We have been out shopping for presents most weekends recently, getting ready give us more time to enjoy the festivities, the social diary is filling up nicely.

Our local garden centre had its Xmas preview night last Thursday. Free prosecco and mince pies.
Unfortunately, we were unable to attend as Mrs Salad was having her hair cut.

Our local supermarket is already groaning under the weight of Christmas tat.

My Christmas decorations remain resolutely in the loft, and will do until a couple of weeks into December, whereupon Mrs S will turn the house into a grotto....

Kind of.
I live just outside Horncastle but work near Louth so I take that road, twice a day. I'm only at that job until the 17th though, it's a temporary job while I get some up to date experience on my CV. The curse of being self employed for 20 years means that apparently, I have no job skills.

Off topic I know, I swim at Horncastle most mornings. I know the self employed bit, I am on my 42nd year of it, not that I have ever wanted a job.

Mine will go up on Christmas eve, and will come down on twelfnight, exactly as they're supposed to.

Selfridges open their Christmas department on 1 August every year. Slightly early for my liking!

The way things are going in the UK you may have to buy “Christmas decorations” from under the counter very soon........
”Have a Happy Christmas Holiday”

A house around the corner from us does a big display every year for charity , they have been working on it for about 4 weeks now its about 80% finished , it gets loads of visitors every night and raises quite a lot for the chosen charity

.......We are half way through a box of mince pies .

I feel sorry for those who don't get to eat real mince pies, and have to put up with bought ones. There is a world of difference.




Bugger. Who mentioned mince pies on a fasting day?!

I've just seen my first lorry load of Christmas trees of 2017, fresh from the forest and heading south.

Miss Goodbody has a forest on her land ... we will heading south later to trim some in time for the festive season.

This six-weeks past, MrsP and her WI chums have been beavering away making Christmas tree baubels and festive door wreaths for sale on their stall at the Village Christmas Market and Lights Switch on Event.
