Watching a Christmas themed movie and it's got me ridiculously in the mood for Christmas already. 🙄

Any other Christmas lovers out there!?

I get that in early September but it wears off long before Christmas. By November I can't be arsed with it all. It's very bad timing.
Christmas bargain thread is good any time of year though.

There's a Christmas forum? Where?

SnuggyBuggy · 05/08/2018 23:04

The heat makes me long for Christmas and cold weather. Really not a heat person.

LoveIsNotInTheAir · 05/08/2018 23:07

YABU only because Halloween comes first! Grin

Tiredtomybones · 05/08/2018 23:10

I started my Christmas shopping today. It was accidental but I spotted something perfect and bought it. I feel good...

PolkerrisBeach · 05/08/2018 23:14

Off you fuck to the Christmas topic.

ilovesooty · 05/08/2018 23:15

Aaaarrrggghhh... Shock

edwinbear · 05/08/2018 23:16

Darkestnight · 05/08/2018 23:52

Ba humbug not now thanks im enjoying summer Wink

rainbowsandsmiles · 06/08/2018 00:42

Oh, FFS, yes. Yes you are VVVVVU Grin
I mean,come on. I love Christmas.Get as giddy as a kipper for it. Not in the middle of a sodding heatwavey August and months to go though.
Enjoy your summer break instead of wishing it away!
How am I supposed to do my Elf or Santa Who? watching in August and get the same giddiness? Just not the same!

YerAuntFanny · 06/08/2018 02:03

YANBU.

It's perfectly possible to look forward to an event in the near future whilst enjoying the present!

I bought my first Christmas present today after DD made me watch Pilar Express this morning 😁

Teaandbiscuits88 · 06/08/2018 08:20

I bought a good housekeeping ‘getting ahead for christmas’ mag yesterday. Dh thought I was crazy!

It’s precisely because of the heatwave I’m looking forward to Christmas - I’m thoroughly fed up of it and am looking forward to autumn with a vengeance!!

OldGreyBoots · 06/08/2018 10:58

I can't wait. Jumpers and boots and heavy coats, Christmas music and decorations, stodgy food and hot chocolate...I'm ready! (I know IABU but Scotland lost its heatwave ages ago Grin)

Aprilsinparis · 06/08/2018 11:17

I love Christmas......Which reminds me I really must start thinking about making my Christmas cake.Smile

RaspberryRuffless · 06/08/2018 11:29

I love christmas! Always start getting excited in August, doesn't help the the Movies 24 channel has just done Christmas in July last month, so watched lots of christmas movies. The argument of not getting excited in a heatwave is irrelevant for me since the heatwave seems to be over in my part of Scotland thankfully and it's even a bit chilly today. Can't wait to get my autumn candles on the go.

Mousefunky · 06/08/2018 11:32

Nothing about this miserably hot weather is making me feel festive Sad. I won’t feel it until Autumn.

Aprilsinparis · 06/08/2018 11:55

Mousefunky I have hated every second of this shite summer.

Curious2468 · 06/08/2018 14:47

I’ve bought the bulk of my daughters gifts already as they were on sale and already thinking about xmas stock for my little home business.

BalloonSlayer · 06/08/2018 14:53

@5Foot5 what are your special Christmas novels?

SinglePringle · 06/08/2018 14:58

Christ no. Not in this glorious heat and sunshine! I’m LOVING this summer.

Let’s get to th end of the heat before dreaming of the —bastard— rain and cold.

rosie1959 · 06/08/2018 15:08

Thinking of Christmas in August not likely probably in December as I particularly dislike Christmas
Cold dark days trying to buy presents when you have no bloody idea what to get

sonarbear · 06/08/2018 15:10

Nothing could be further from my mind in this sweltering heat.

AmazingGrace16 · 06/08/2018 15:11

Nope yanbu!

ChelleDawg2020 · 06/08/2018 15:14

YANBU. I watched my first Christmas movie of the season on Amazon Prime last Friday (A Very Harold & Kumar 3D Christmas) and it made me realise how close we are. Long, cold dark nights are coming!
