@divegeester saidOh yeah.... Just seen an award ceremony on ITV (GB), decorations started alot sooner than that dive🤣👍
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.

@chris-guffogg saidAte a slice of Xmas cake at Costa last Thursday. I'm just a pawn in the marketers game. 🤨

@divegeester saidFunny Stees just told me he thought people who put up Christmas decorations before December were compensating for something 🤷🏻♂️

@relentless-red saidDo you know what Christmas cake is called in March? Fruit cake, tastes just the same.

@drewnogal saidYou’ve got me there but I doubt Costas Christmas cake was fed with brandy 😉
Oh no it doesn’t. I like mine slowly fed with brandy from the 15th Dec 😋
Serious Christmas cake makers start in the summer and feed it with booze every few weeks 😱

@trev33 saidBlack 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.

@relentless-red saidLast 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.

@drewnogal saidHow does that work? Do you have it in a tin through that time? Is that before the marzipan goes on?
Oh no it doesn’t. I like mine slowly fed with brandy from the 15th Dec 😋
