We're in London for my birthday in August and seeing as it's a birthday trip DH can hardly refuse me a visit to Harrods now can he? Grin

Seriously I love that site. Wait until the 100 day mark, then they REALLY get going!

Dolly it's COMPLETELY addictive, especially when they go full tilt at the 100 days to Christmas mark (around mid September). I was checking it about 50 times daily last year Grin
They've put a few of the things I've tweeted them on the website - I'm ludicrously proud of this fact (and may have just outed myself Grin )

Happy yes they do, they post several times a day. Have a look at last year's posts to get an idea (and to feel Christmassy Grin ). I especially love their watchlist (look! One item's been crossed off already!) - it's stupidly exciting watching all the items get crossed off as Christmas gets closer.

The TV old ads are fab aren't they? Me and DD spent ages watching them last year. Also loved all the old BBC idents.

Bumping because we've passed into double figures now (yeah)

Just watched the Christmas Adverts bit (some absolute tripe out there ) but I rewatched the John Lewis Snowman Advert (because it is so sad when he crouched at the edge of the motorway flyover) and the M&S one (because David Gandy is in it, and I don;t need a reason Grin )

Noooooooooooo!

This website is too too scrumptious! How did I (self-confessed OCD - Obsessive Christmas Disorder - sufferer)

Can't be doing with Christmas spoilers tho!
