I don't know what it's like for everyone else, but here in the England, the commercials for Chirstmas gifts get earlier and earlier each year. Well, I saw the first ones this year, yesterday, that's not THAT early you might say, but the advert was for a magazine from which you could buy your gifts for Christmas 2006! [lol], we haven't even had Crimbo 2005 yet and already ads for Crimbo 2006 are hitting the screens here. That really is stupid, I guess it is nearly time for the Christmas ads to start, but for Christmas 2006? That's just silly. [lol] People from the UK reading this might know which ones I'm on about, the 'Park' Christmas magazine thingymabobber.

I think people are begining to forget the true meaning of Christmas .... which of course is to give me loads of money [:)]

we've got a store (more an warehouse where you can buy things) which has all the themed stuff, all the year, so it's already x-mas, or it was never over, your pick
