Shocking news from DH

He said... "It's the 25th today - half way to Christmas".

AAARRGGHHHHH😂

Cannot cope with such facts in this present heat. Nope.

Not exactly. It has been 182 days since last Christmas and is 181 days to the next one.
(quibble quibble quibble, eh Mr Gibbon)

Half Christmas! (It’s an EastEnders thing 🙄)

I’m already seeing Christmas stuff eg an ad for the panto at a local theatre! We’re in the middle of a heatwave!

Which Christmas, though? 2027?

My hubby is a professional Santa 🎅 so I hear this every year on 25th June. It could drive me crazy but for the whole of December I have a bit of peace and quiet while he's at work and I organise Christmas xx

182 + 181 does not equal 365.

In the past l have seen local supermarkets putting Christmas stock on their shelves before the end of August.

So only another 60 days or so.

Shop early for Christmas folks
☃️🌲🧑‍🎄

Ha! My birthday is the 25 th June. My husband always says ‘It’s downhill to Christmas now’!!!

🤣

Well... It's good to get organised! ☃️🌲🌟🦌🛷

I was happy
Now I'm depressed

It's the most wonderful time of the year! 😄

How supermarket staff tolerate the constant blaring of Christmas tunes I'll never know. 😩I've decided to do online shopping this year until it stops.

I used to work at one of the big supermarkets. I was gobsmacked to find the warehouse full of boxed Christmas trees immediately after the August Bank Holiday!

I got given the same reason as you did - if they’re not available, people moan and go elsewhere.
Since then , I’ve looked for little festive additions in the stores from August onwards. One big clue is the arrival of the tubs of Quality Street, Roses, etc, piled up by the front doors. Another is the Dove, Nivea,& Lynx gift sets that appear early Autumn.

my local tescos is ahead on the tubs of sweets

Crikey!!! Really? Eeek😱

yep, i sorta get retails point but then you may as well sell christmas items after easter etc

I love the Christmas music as I shop! 😍

Oh don’t them hear you say that!! I’m sure they would if they could!

I bought one! I thought it was for the World Cup parties!!!

day after boxing day after going to tescos, a couple years ago i was eating an easter egg

its possible or a crafty way to have them early

Well it's worked! They were flying off the shelves!

I don't mind soothing carols but there's only so much of 'Wizard' at full volume with 'I wish it could be Christmas everyday' one can take.
