The word Christmas should be banned until 1st December.

I went to Skeggy a couple of years back and Mrs DW had wanted a trip to Woodthorpe Garden Centre (HQ of Brigg GC) and so on the first Monday which I am sure was 8th September - we entered there and there was a huge strip down going on

Despite the irony of a blazing sun outside - the Staff had assembled lots of black backdrops . rooms and were gradually buiding their Xmas displays - Sept the 8th !

Its everyone to their own of course with no right or wrong but Martin Lewis has a point. Make it for Kids till they are say 16 and Adults have a pact - do not swap any Presents at all. Result - he says - less pressure / less long term debt - much more enjoyable

Mine would be abandon all Christmas Card exchanging and give some (or all) of the Money you save to Charity. I used to do this at work so instead of getting Cards saying for example "To John from Bob - Merry Christmas" I gave a Tenner to Children in Need which I felt was a better thing to do

However as I said its each to their own - and for each person to work out what "works" for them
