Some food, coal and kindling if I spend all my money at TINGS!

Von Ryan's Express on the telly and NOT my sister and family to stay.

Thanks for reminding us all of the impending doom!

Bah humbug indeed!

Isn't it absolutely horrid when all the in-laws descend. Thankfully that's history for Bealman.

I used to hate it even though we could kick them out into the backyard in the Aussie summer!

Having said that, I do think early September is a bit early for humbug. Sorta like Easter eggs appearing in the supermarkets the day after Boxing Day. It happens here, I kid you not.

Reminds me of a chappie I worked with, when he looked at the tv guide
for the festive season he would moan because " there were no good war
films on at Christmas"

Peace and goodwill, deck the halls, blah blah blah........

Happens here too, I know because I once delivered them into stores three days BEFORE Christmas!

More importantly for me........if it's 113 shopping days till Christmas it's 114 shopping days till I retire
On the other hand Christmas Day isn't a shopping day so I suppose it's still 113 shopping days till I retire

Another vote for 'Bah. Humbug' here
