First Christmas Tree seen.

Taking the dog for a walk last night, and there it was in all its glory. Lit up, outside in the garden. Wonder when they'll be putting the decorations up!!

Maybe it was an Eid Tree.

Yes & an axe. However its in their back garden & the those next door have a camera watching their car outside their house that I'd have to go past.

With Christmas fairy on top! Those living in the house are not muslim as far as i'm aware.

Throw a stone from a distance and knock the fairy off.

Nuke it with a Guy Fawkes night rocket.

Maybe it was someone having a family christmas because they won't all be together for some reason. Someone I know did this two years running as they were told their daughter wouldn't survive till christmas...she defied them twice!!! Or maybe they just are nobbers!!

Christmas in July is becoming popular with many people, particularly with people who want to get back to the old traditional way of celebrating without all the hype and worship of the retail gods. The actual date isn't that important to many modern Christians as December the 25th was only chosen by early Christian's to fit in with the solstice celebrations.

Companies have been doing their brochures for Christmas,they would now have stock secured or on the way by sea ,and are putting together their colour brochures,I saw this scene in the 30 degrees of three weeks ago

This rubbish used to start once the kids went back to school in September can't believe its now happening in August.
I would happily ban it and go as far away from the hype as possible. It's now two weeks where the country grinds to a halt and if you want to escape it you are charged more than double the price of any other time

Sorry rant over. Should probably be on Pet hates thread .
