I love Christmas too so reading this made me smile 😀 however I have my 40th birthday and the first summer with my two little ones ahead of me before that so I’ll have to revisit this thread around September time if you’re still happy to discuss then 😂

Leaning against the wall in the corner our spare room are several rolls of Christmas wrapping paper waiting to go back into the loft. 😂

😄😄🥰 keep it there to remind you that better days are coming!

Yes definitely!

I think you'll have a lovely summer and then an excellent first/second Christmas with them 🥰

I get this. I think my problem is that it still feels like winter, it's easier to move on when you're moving on to something different.

I get what you mean - i feel like this winter has been shite though, no snow in London and barely any weather below 0 😒

Woo hoo!

I don’t like the American ones though. I prefer the British ones.

Me too, nothing like a British Christmas- although its never gonna be as good as the 90s 🥺

@Iloveluna @MaybeItWasMe Why are you following the Christmas section in March if you disapprove?

It’s in active conversations. HTH.

Yikes, we've only just got the last one over with.

Oh my god

I'm having a day of screentime and doomscrolling

I am not missing anything in life but I do love Christmas

If I posted this on aibu I would expect this kind of attack but you are on the Christmas board - perhaps your life is missing something which is why you've taken time out of your evening to judge me 🤷‍♀️🖕

youre having a day of doomscrolling, yet not missing anything in life. Ok. Whatever.

ETA before o get accused of trolling, I’m on the train home from London after a rather fabulous evening. Today o went to work (after the gym) and had Lunch with a friend. Honestly op, get out instead of wishing 9 months away.

THIS THREAD IS IN ACTIVE!

I don’t follow the Christmas topic. I’ve never answered a Christmas threads. It’s in active conversations. H that H. You know how active conversations work I assume?

Where you have or have not posted is neither here nor there.

If you don’t want to see it in Active then you must unfollow it.

Blimey. I love Christmas but definitely not ready until we have had Summer such as it is in the UK.

Aww I bet the duck has been enjoying all this rain!

Iloveluna · 13/03/2026 23:02

Op you are very aggressive. This is a forum. I think you’ve misunderstood, answering someone else’s post does not make you a troll.

A day doomscrolling doesn’t sound that appealing to most. It doesn’t make a troll to say that.

You've answered the post to shame me in a way that I felt was aggressive 😅
