Christmas In November?

For some unknown reason yesterday evening was dedicated to transforming our quaint village high street into a breeding ground for poorly erected (grow up) stalls flogging ‘Country Fudge’ and ‘Roasted Nuts’. Why? Because the local council decided we should celebrate Christmas on the 26th November this year. I’m yet to find out why. For the younger kids, one of the many advantages of these types of events concerns the red ‘Lightsaber’ toys on sale. Everybody knows there’s nothing more festive than bashing somebody over the head with a toy that probably fell off the back of a lorry, and being forced to stop by your parents/the parent of the child you’ve just violated. Just wait until the Jedi Council hear about this one..
