big dinners Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 So once again the time has come,Christmas rammed down our throats from the end of September:(. I am sick of it already,it should be banned from the TV and advertising boards until at least the end of November,only this morning on a breakfast TV channel they had kids making a giant xmas card,works do's have been advertised since early September and there is a sudden influx of adverts for toys on the TV,shops are stocked with tacky decorations for sale and some have even started with the over the top decorations already. If you've not realised it yet ,we actually spend a quarter of our year either celebrating or planning Xmas and watching the latest creepy mega store ads on TV . I dont mind Xmas from mid December,but detest having to see all these tacky ads as soon as I get back off my hols. It does seem to get earlier every year , a total waste of time if you ask me. does anyone know if there are any petitions or likewise which want to ban Christmas until Christmas time???

one snowball Posted October 10, 2011 Share Posted October 10, 2011 the tradition of christmas has died out there are too many ppl that moan and grumble about it . i have 2 very young boys and find it very hard to try and get the magic that christmas is all about across to them ... feel sorry for kids these days , growing up in a dull society with no imagination, no excitement and most of all the things that make growing up good are taken away from them. if you dont agree with something being for sale then dont buy it but please dont try and take other ppls enjoyment away cause thats just selfish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
