Oh yeah, I didn't notice that.

[chrysostom]

I'm not suprised, it was a massive fail of a thread!

Finally, a blog post that isn't 100% negative to Moyles. And it's from Watch With Mothers too, who are really harsh judges.

We've put our christmas tree up in my room.

[foot-loose]

Why?

[foot-loose]

... silly cow.

[MK Chris]

Seconded... we're not even half way through December. Christmas trees should be put up no earlier than 15th December.

[SAV1OUR]

Noo, whats the point in that? All the shops put the pssing things up, and the big fat Santa in the centre of Manchester is most impressive, 1st December is fine, not a day before.

[MK Chris]

That's a fortnight too early. 15th December at the earliest and down by 2nd January at the latest.

[SAV1OUR]

Each to their own, some are ridiculously early, but if you dont put them up by the 15th you might aswell not bother at all.

Christmas should be confined to two and a half weeks as an absolute maximum (I'm not talking about your Christmas shopping, but your Christmas celebrations - obviously some people buy Christmas presents through the year, which is entirely different.)

[SAV1OUR]

I've often thought about buiying pressies a year early, as the sales are on after Christmas.

Christmas should be confined to two and a half weeks as an absolute maximum (I'm not talking about your Christmas shopping, but your Christmas celebrations -.........)

Depends on your definition of Christmas really. For me, it starts with Advent, and has absolutely nothing to do with trees or tinsel (although I love those things too).

[MK Chris]

Well, that is true. To me Christmas also has nothing to do with trees and tinsel, but it's a time for friends and family (well, the family you get on with).

[Yudster]

I do agree about the decorations bit though - I get the tree done the weekend before Christmas, so its there for a maximum of a week before Christmas - and its usually gone just after New Year. Much as I love it, thats enough for me.

[dolly]

seconded - advent is the beginning and doesnt realy matter when you put your tree up!! alwasy have a real one and the stupid pines are actually quite annoying after a while!

haven't started shopping - starting to make me a bit concerned. i could never think about it far in advance - i dont know what to buy people!

i am excited about christmas though - it's alwasy funn!! Xx

Being male I always buy a tree which is far too large! I can only just fit it in the car, and it takes over most of the lounge. I must show some restraint this year, actually I think for the first time in years we may have a fake tree if the Mrs has anything to do with it!

[MK Chris]

Real trees are messy and leave pins all over the place.

[ladbroke]

Real trees are messy and leave pins all over the place.

But I love the smell. It's not too much hassle to hoover them up whenever you're hoovering the lounge.

[Yudster]

I can't see the point of a fake tree. But then I don't like fake anything really. If I couldn't have a real one I wouldn't bother with a tree.

I have found a dress for Friday night! http://www.newlook.co.uk/1562720/156272 ... tails.aspx it's gorgeous!! I am a very happy bunny.

[Andy B]

I can't be bothered with Christmas. Only reason I have a tree at all is that my missus insists on it. It's a 1' high one with fiber optics. That's still too much for me really.

[S4B]

My dress is NOT for Christmas!
