Strongly worded letter to the Residents' Association will be penned this evening! I think there was a town in Holland a few years ago which banned (as much as it could) anything related to Christmas (music in shops, decorations, etc) until December. May move there... Which is the way it should be. There should be no mention of Christmas anywhere, decorations or anything else to do with Christmas until December the 1st. Signed, The Grinch Quote

Francis Albert Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 While we are being annoyed Plaza always annoys me a bit. Square or Place. Would also like a better sign for it than the cheap cardboard looking one that must have added 20 quid to the new stand cost. Quote
Ex member of the SaS Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 It's not the Christmas season until the coca cola lorry drives past a crowd on TV! Christmas is for the kids and starting too early means they are hyped for too long. Parents shopping for pressies is OK but leave everything else for another three weeks. Quote

HeartsandonlyHearts Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 We have Thanksgiving tomorrow and already neighbors have Christmas lights up. Can’t we just do one holiday at a time? Dec 1st is more than enough time to get into the Christmas spirit. Quote

JamboGraham Posted November 24, 2021 Posted November 24, 2021 We live in a dark dreich country. Winter lights should go up on streets, windows and doors everywhere the night the clocks go back and remain up until the clocks go forward again. They just make being out and about so much more pleasant. As for a Christmas decorations put them up whenever makes you happy, goodness knows we all could do with a little more happiness. Quote
