Ah, but I don't watch much TV, and most of what I do watch I record and advance so I can skip the adverts, so I'm reasoning that if I saw my first Christmas TV advert on October 1st, they've probably been flocking on the horizon for weeks. ;-)
Well, for all you know, those squeaky-clean washing powder adverts have a secret double life advertising X-rated chat lines ("let me wash your underwear, big boy"), and don't want their employers to know about it.
Our Snasebries has had Christmas cakes and mince pies in for the alst week, plus the chocolate selection boxes - all whilst trying to flog Ramadan (not advent calendars honest) Calendars, and Hallowe'en gifts, costumes, and props.
Boots has been building up the chocolate, or bottled beer & glass, gift boxes for about a fortight!
Maybe it should become like sighting the first cuckoo of spring, or something. Bill Oddie etc. can host "Christmaswatch", and talk in hushed tones about the gathering of crackers and mince pies.
Hah, I bought a christmas present last week *and gave it!* (to chainmailmaiden, who I believe would really like christmas to occur weekly or at most, monthly).
Monthly Christmas would be good, that would allow for a full advent each time and New MonthTM celebrations too. What an excellent idea! When I rule the world, I will make it so! *evil (but very christmassy in a 'Ho, ho, ho' kind of way) laugh*
*Lindy didn't mind wearing the hat, but she bopped the kitty face that it was merchandised on, she also tried to chew the face off my new tiger rug. It would appear that she is highly intolerant of any new cats into her territory :-D
