Christ is going to be another year older so I suppose he knows how fast the year has gone.

it's nearly 3 months away, bloomin' ridiculous to be putting christmas merchandise in the shops already.

On the plus side it's only a little over 3 months and we can have hot cross buns for brekky

Even the shops aren't filling up with Christmas yet, it's all Halloween this year.

I also think these last 3 years have gone very quickly.

It must be a perspective thing as the clocks apparently run at the same speed.

My shops are filling up with Xmas and Halloween. Xmas decorations are on the shelves. Xmas lollies, food etc. Lots of Halloween carp too.

We have a lot of family and friends birthdays in Noevember so I never think of Christmas until December and I am usually broke by then with so many presents to buy in Noevember

We had the same thing when our eldest November birthday son lived at home, bump. Now he has moved out, I can go into Christmas mode then and hope I remember his birthday. 😄

You must have better shops than us, blgf. Until this year the Christmas stuff was always out by mid September. ( which is way too early!)

Kopenhagen, it is a perspective thing. When you were 6, 3 years were half a lifetime, by 24 time was 4 times faster (than 6) now that you are ??, well you can work the Maths out! 😄
