Oh good christmas shopping time

Must be all the residual aluminium still in the drinking water that makes even the younger ones demented.

Ah, didn't see this here. The Christmas lights are now up on my street as well.

Early Christmas lights spark row

Residents of a Cornish town say they are embarrassed about a decision to put up Christmas lights - a full three months before Christmas Day.

But the St Austell and District Chamber of Commerce says it was necessary because it has nowhere to store the decorations while moving offices.

Chairman Paul Scott said: "I'm surprised by the fuss. The lights won't go on until the end of November."

But one local resident said it made the town a "laughing stock".
