Is It Too Soon For that Christmas Feeling?


 
I only ask because work wise things have slowed down as if Christmas is next week not still 5 weeks away.
 
The wife and I went for our first Christmas foray into Town on Saturday. Fairly busy but no one as yet has the mad look of panic in the eye.
 
The busiest road in Newcastle (in my opinion) runs by my office and that has already started to have the mid morning Christmas tail backs. I suppose for those of us lucky enough to still be in jobs in the pubic sector and the North East there is only one more pay day before Christmas and two years into our pay freeze we need to spend over a longer period rather than leave it all til December.
 
Daughter is back from Portsmouth and from welcoming sailor boy back to Blighty after seven months at sea. Our son is in Bordeaux and has booked his flights home for Christmas so we know he is coming home but not sure for how long.
 
Not started listening to Christmas music yet but have discovered Smooth have launched a Christmas radio station playing only Xmas hits. No ads. Wife is already watching the Sky Christmas Movie Channel
 
But I’ll hold off on the Ho Ho Ho for a few more weeks.
