What's the earliest you'd sent (or expect to receive!) a Xmas card?

...within the UK?

I usually send mine around the 10th of December. I always think of "Pamelar" in gavin and Stacey christmas special who said she sent hers on the 1st November so that everyone had 7 weeks to enjoy them

Any time in December is fine. Any earlier and your officially bonkers

I think i'll start sending mine around the second week in December. However they are all done and addressed ready to go! The girls have spent the past week making them all.

One of my sil likes to be first at sending Xmas cards so they always arrive mid November. Works against her because I refuse to put them up that early so half the time they get lost and never make it out with the others.

She has been beaten this year by my godmother who knew she was seeing my mum last week and so gave it to her to give to me. Which doesn't bother me at all - I think sensible to cut out extortionate postage where possible. Whereas sil and her desire to be first card of the season does annoy me. Unreasonable I know!

I'm going to send mine early this year - right at the beginning of December or even end of november. Most unlike me but H and I split up during rhe year and I'm nor sure who out of extended family knows. Want to send cards from the three of us and hopefully before I get any to the four of us.

Not until 1st December. I'm not that early, but I bear no grudge against those who are.

Anything visibly Christmassy in November is just plain wrong.
