Last couple of years, I've been out by now, but am still in!

Still in

Technically, I'm still in, because I haven't heard it since the start of December.

Deep down, though, I know I'm a loser. I got caught out whilst stuck in a waiting room on November 16th.

I was at the grocery store earlier and "Last Christmas" came on and I could hear two people groan about "Whamageddon" but I told them it wasn't Wham (it was a female singer who wasn't very good) so we are all still in.

It's sad that I care so much.

Except you're not, as the rules are very clear that it starts on 1 December!

I'm out, I heard it on the radio in the car before I got to work.

Backstreet bastards this morning on Magic. I spent the entire journey grumbling but actually i see I’m not out. Hurrah!

LlynTegid · 05/12/2022 11:13

Still in, thought I'd be out yesterday at the local Christmas Fair but somehow did not happen.

I'm still in. 🥳

I've taken to playing Russian Whamageddon Roulette. Driving along in silence, count down from 5 and then whack the radio on!
Adrenaline junkie!
The teens are appalled at my risk taking behaviour!

PlaitBilledDuckyPuss · 05/12/2022 19:04

Still in - been working from home all day with no radio/TV on, so pretty safe!

Still in!

QueenOfThorns · 05/12/2022 21:52

Still in, despite a Christmas market yesterday!

Luckypoppy · 05/12/2022 21:53

Me

MrsMigginsCat · 05/12/2022 21:53

Unbelievably I'm still in, despite having shopped at the weekend and the office radio has been tuned to Heart since last week. I expect I'll get caught on Wednesday though as it's the office Christmas lunch.

TwoRockSalmonAndAHaporthOfChips · 05/12/2022 21:53

I’m still in, though it was squeaky bum time when the window fitter was listening to Radio 2 this morning and they kept playing old Christmas tunes. We had David Essex and a number of others, but no Wh*m, yet!

NoWordForFluffy · 06/12/2022 06:43

I'm definitely going out today as I've a trip into town (trying to get charitable donations for a food bank plot at the allotment I'm at, so I'm going in every shop!).

Aworldofmyown · 06/12/2022 17:10

I can't believe I'm still in!!! Its now making me jittery 😆

PlaitBilledDuckyPuss · 06/12/2022 17:16

Still in but currently listening to Absolute 80s so living dangerously!

NoWordForFluffy · 06/12/2022 17:17

Against all odds, I am somehow still in too. I got to about 17 Dec last year, when I heard it on the Santa train we do each year. I'm not doing that until 23 Dec this year though!

UnfortunatePoster · 06/12/2022 18:33

Last year I made it to Christmas Eve - this year bloody Graham Norton got me on the morning of the 1st December, the bastard.

Emmelina · 06/12/2022 18:35

I lost this morning on the way to work - bloody heart FM!

Herbie0987 · 06/12/2022 18:41

Still in, had radio on in work yesterday but boss put on 70s Heart

TimeAtTheBar · 06/12/2022 18:42

Still in! I’m normally out really early because of playlists at work but it’s not on this one.
