    Bad News Its Christmas!

    Was looking for something to eat earlier and noticed that my Dad had already bought a box of mince pies ... and its not even October

    Of coarse I love mince pies and think they should be eaten all year round but it seems a little early.

    I was wondering if anyones seen anyone with their Christmas decoations up yet? How long do you think its gonna be before the shops starting dusting off the tinsle and spraying fake snow in the windows?

    One town in the UK thinks they have set the record as theirs are up already, can't remember where though.

    I bought some mini rum truffle cakes this morning while in the early stages of my hangover

    we sell mince pies at work already, and they all go out of date on the 12th of december. look at most xmas stock in shops, apart from stuff that lasts for ages it will all go out before the actual day

    The bit I hated about working at a shop at xmas time would be that dreaded cd/tape with the same old tunes on it repeated all day every day. Whenever I hear them I still cringe.
