I was just telling Stees that we already have our Christmas tree up and half dressed. Starting to put out other festive decorations.

Christmas lasts a month this year.

Ate a slice of Xmas cake at Costa last Thursday. I'm just a pawn in the marketers game. 🀨

Sometimes it’s pleasant to just go with the marketing flow.

Funny Stees just told me he thought people who put up Christmas decorations before December were compensating for something 🀷🏻‍♂️

Do you know what Christmas cake is called in March? Fruit cake, tastes just the same.

You’ve got me there but I doubt Costas Christmas cake was fed with brandy πŸ˜‰

Serious Christmas cake makers start in the summer and feed it with booze every few weeks 😱

Black and white stripped mint humbugs are said to taste like Everton mints, but we only buy the ones marked black and white stripped mint humbugs.

Last year (for the first time ever) we left the tree up until February. The unfortunate consequence of this is that this Christmas feels like it has arrived far too early.

Too much superstition in my family for that - twelfth night etc.

How does that work? Do you have it in a tin through that time? Is that before the marzipan goes on?
