Merry Christmas in July!

Merry Christmas in July!

Merry Christmas 🎄 🤶 to you too!

What's the significance of Christmas in July?

Nothing, except it’s the 25th July. Well nothing else I can think of.

What's up, Cnon?

Ohhhh! I'm currently playing Christmas music on Spotify while I work.
5 months today!

This thread title caught my eye. I thought it was going to be about stores setting out Xmas stuff earlier and earlier each year.

TKMax have huge displays of Halloween goods right now. In July!

It's an good reason to play Christmas music and think cold weather in the hot summer.

I think I’m going to be alone for a few days (at least 24th to 26th, possibly longer) and I can’t bloody wait!

Well to be fair, any day is a good reason to play Christmas music.

I thought you meant the weather 😂

I'm playing some on LiveXOne.

I am reading/looking at pictures on Christmassy blogs every day now.

It's quite autumnal here today.(where does the comma go?)
I think I prefer the American Christmassy blogs to the few British that I have seen.
Merry Christmas to you all.

Merry Christmas to everyone! Only 5 more months to go.
Glad to find my kind of people here - I'm watching Christmas cooking programmes.

Which blogs would you recommend? I’ve been listening to a lovely Christmassy podcast to help me fall asleep some nights.😆

The Hallmark channel has Christmas in July. I had a day off work yesterday & spent it watching Christmas movies. Fabulous 🎅

Merry Christmas everyone! I had Michael Buble playing earlier as we have an online store and the Christmas decorations we make are starting to fly out so had lots of fun packing them up! Love it 🎅🏼

Merry Christmas in July
It's usually mid-August before I start properly planning Christmas but it's come earlier this year, probably because the weather is so rubbish.

I'd also love some Christmas blog and podcast recommendations.

I listened to Calm Christmas by Beth Kempton last year (I think there are 3 series) which was nice.
I think the year before I listened to Christmas: What the Fa-la-la-la-la. Not great but kept me company through a few went and cold lunchtime walks.

Also, there's A Christmas Carol on Audible that's free, read by Hugh Grant and it's really lovely so would recommend that too.

Why is everyone saying Merry Christmas? It's so random.
I get you're looking forward to it but it's not actually Christmas?
It's like wishing someone a happy birthday 6 months in advance.
