Oh come ON! No way I'm as grouchy as Dragan - "refuse to watch an ad", etc.

I do admit to being an Xmas humbug. But today I passed our local Woolworths and one window had Halloween crap in it - the other Santa, snowmen, and cartoon reindeer. Guess which one I wanted to put a brick through. Like someone else said, pity the poor staff who have to listen to Roy Wood, Slade, et al ad nauseum for a whole month. A few years ago I was in a riverside pub in London, c. 1-3 Dec, and "Here it is - Merry Christmas" and the like were belting out. I thought "NO! It ISN'T - Bollix!". Why not play that sh!te in August if that's the attitude!

Nuff said.
