I can't bloody wait for Christmas! I love it. I've already got a few ideas in mind for presents and I'll probably buy them in August so that I can then spend the rest of the time planning the food and the drink! We went out for dinner last year on Christmas Day and that was lovely, so might do that again, not sure yet though.
I love the whole preparation leading up to Christmas Eve -seeing all the food and drink ideas in the shop, hearing Shakin' Stevens and Wham! playing, then Abba on New Year's Eve!

We’re going out for Christmas dinner this year because it will make it all feel like less of a massive slog if I don’t have to make Christmas dinner on top of thinking about everything else. Might make Christmas more bearable this year. 😄🎄 Ho Ho Ho

I love Christmas, I really do, but my reaction to your thread title was literally "shut the fuck up!".

Sorry!!

Christmas In July is a thing so you’re just beating the rush really!

Come over and join us on the Christmas board! I've already bought my first present for Christmas 2025 and have discussed with DH which weekend to make the Christmas pudding 🤣🎄.

I was apprehensive about going out last year - we've never done it before. But, it was so lovely not having to spend the morning cooking and then being able to walk away without doing the washing up on Christmas Day!
Mind you, I still cooked a full-on Christmas dinner on Boxing Day (because, clearly I am mad!), it was just more chilled out!

My first Christmas presents arrived yesterday 😁 Some little stocking fillers for the children. In my excitement, I tried to read a Christmas themed novel to my son last night but he wasn’t having any of it 😂😂
