Toonraider 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Its not November yet, but here in Torquay the shops already have their crimbo decs up, i hate being reminded of it all so soon I refuse to buy any cards and pressies yet, i love christmas but this spoils it for me, way too early. I remember a couple years back coming up to Newcastle in early December and managing to do some pressie shopping at the Metro, it was so christmassy and festive...and i felt in the spirit for it then, hope they havent put the decs up there yet too.

Lou 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 IT'S NOT EVEN HALLOWEEN YET!!!!!! NO, CHRISTMAS. NO!!! WAIT YOUR TURN. That is my sane and rational message to Christmas. It was so bad in Melbourne this time last year... so Christmassy EVERYWHERE.... drove me and Trisi mad. I don't like to feel Christmassy until December 1st at the earliest. But when it's still October?? MADNESS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catmag 336 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 For the first time ever I have started buying presents early and being organised. I've probably got about half of my christmas shopping done already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lou 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 (edited) I just remembered when I met up with Steve in Melb, and the Christmas Tram went by - WITH SANTA ONBOARD, so Trisi and I ran after it yelling and waving to Santa. And Steve and Woody refused to run too in order to A- wave at Santa, B- catch up with the tram so that we could get on it. Damn that was funny. You shoulda seen the boys' faces! [happy place] (you probably had to be there...) (and be me. Steve seemed to find it less amusing than I did at the time..... then again, it's probably hard to be amused when one is fearing for one's life..... ) Edited October 24, 2005 by Lou Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albert Kirkey 0 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Far too early, commercialism sucks all the good bits out of Christmas, imo decorations shouldn't go up til a month before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
