Argh people are already smothering their houses in outside christmas decorations

One just up the road from me has got fully decked out and lit up front yard christmas decorations already and it's still a month to go!

I'll be lucky if I even had a tree unless it's a really small one that's easy to pack away.

I recently uncovered a ceramic christmas tree that has a globe inside that shines through various coloured lights mounted on it. Maybe 40 cm tall and hand made and painted by my wife many years ago in some ceramics class she did with friends. I have decided thats my only decoration this year. Just have to clear off the dining table..😷

@whowasthatmaskedman Hand made is always better and when made by a loved one it's wonderful.

@FreddieUK Yes - I've made presents over the years, for relatives or friends.
