So far this week I have seen:

Christmas gift wrap sets, Festive Friends and Christmas chocolates in Home Bargains

'Cheeseonal' Mini Cheddars in those drums with Christmas trees, snowmen etc on them in Tesco

Christmas Cards in the British Heart Foundation shop

Christmas candles in Asda

A local gardening superstore chain (Dobbies - I think just in Scotland) has started putting out their christmas decs and cards. Completely ridiculous!

Fergus we have Dobbies here too (Northumberland) and last year they had their Christmas stuff out by the end of September.

Our local Wetherspoon has a Christmas tree/decs behind the counter to advertise its 'book now for Christmas' thing.

In other news, there are only 20 Fridays until Christmas Grin

DD said she saw an Argos Christmas ad yesterday, with one of those bloody aliens wrapped in fairy lights. She must surely be mistaken...?

I'm not starting to think Christmas. I'm not!

But I have just been talking to my sister who is coming here for Xmas and I can't help it!

I want to concentrate on decluttering and reorganising my house. For Xmas. Hmm
