When does Christmas officially begin for you?
Some say it begins when they have see the Coca Cola advert. Others when they have the tree up.
Mine is when we have bought the tree (which will be today) and that lovely smell of pine it gives to the lounge. I also love the Christingle & Crib service in Church.  |

Re: When does Christmas officially begin for you?
When I finish work for the hols I think, thats when you know that you can drink, eat and sleep in!!!
Also panic buy because you always forget something and doing the food shopping in the middle of the night coz its nice and quiet!!

Re: When does Christmas officially begin for you?

  So all the best to everyone while I remember.

Re: When does Christmas officially begin for you?
I'm not too sure........I buy next years Christmas cards and wrapping paper in the January sales.......I buy presents through out the year....this helps ease the financial strain........I start the wrapping of presents late October/November.......I am in the process of writing cards now.......I have found that as I have matured(got older) it is less easy to get into the Christmas spirit.
I suppose Christmas proper, starts on Christmas Eve with the cooking preparations.

How long does it take to fill the kettle in readiness to prepare a Pot Noodle?
