The 'C' Word.

I notice that posters are now appearing for the first christmas bazaar of the season. Oh dear, hardly into October and the 'C' word is coming to the fore again. The older I get the more I am of the opinion that any mention of christmas should be banned until December 1st. Do we really need to be reminded of the deason when everyone spends too much, is forced to spend too much time with friends and family up close and personal, eat and drink unhealthy quantities of nearly everything and usually end up with a particularly nasty version of the flu.

Then of course you have to face new year and the horrors of dark and rain soaked January. Christmas is something to avoid having to face for as long as possible.
