Scrawling through UK commercial radio stations earlier this morning (don't know why I bothered as they are all pretty much shite) and Heart Radio were playing Band Aid - Do They Know It's Christmas. Well I've got news for them, of course they don't know because it's not fucking Xmas, its the 12th of fucking November and SIX weeks until Xmas.
Don't know if it is just me, but this habit of getting earlier and earlier in celebrating Xmas boils my piss, and I have plenty of that at my age.
We have houses close by where lights are up outside the house, Xmas trees up inside and decorated.
Supermarkets have had boxes of sweets on display for weeks, Xmas card displays and playing Xmas music.
Get a fucking grip folks, I know I'll be coming across as Bah Humbug and Scrooge like to some but surely the calendar should at least be showing the month of December before we are subjected to this.
P.S For the avoidance of doubt, I actually like Xmas Day and love seeing my grandkids with their presents before they head home and I can set about the alcohol everyone knows to buy me as a present
