    Red face Too Many Xmas Greetings - already !

    If you guys and gals want to get all gushy and gooy over Xmas , that's fine with me but can we agree on and establish a couple of criteria?

    1. Wait until it's Xmas (the week before would be fine).

    2. Establish one thread for it. (saves a lot of browsing)



    Not much to ask is it? Afterall. it's NEARLY Xmas.

    BTW, Happy Easter !

    If at first you don't succeed, give something else a go. Life is far too short to waste time trying.

    I guess that means this thread is it.

    So, we're regulating Christmas cheer now? And you asked me if I worked for the Gov't!

    Bugger! Mick, you were a bit quicker than me.

    Incidentally, the rest of you lot are a bunch of grumpy old Scrooges!

    Mind you, I was driving home just after dark last night and had to wait 15 minutes or so because the road near my place was jammed with rubberneckers gawping at a house that the owner has decorated with twinkly lights and other seasonal fol-de-rol.

    The bloody joint looks like Las Vegas. What the hell is it with these nongs? I mean a few Christmas tree lights stretched along the guttering - fine. But this bloke has got a revolving Ferris wheel (what the hell does that have to do with Xmas?) - hordes of reindeer marching along his roofline, at least three flashing Santas (isn't there a law against flashing?) and about 10 gazillion twinkly lights. The whole thing looks like the Godzilla of all migraine attacks. He's even set up something in his front room so people are trudging across his lawn to have a better squizz through the window. Gawdelpus!

    Bah! Humbug!

    It is now Xmas week, you are allowed to send greetings but there is an official Xmas thread. Would be better to use that one.

    Is this the official merry christmas thread?

    Merry Christmas all

    There was a young boy called Wyatt
    Who was awfully quiet
    And then one day
    He faded away
    Because he overused White
