    Just one of those things...........
    My dearest partner in crime has started playing X-mas music again, and is talking day and night about where she's gonna put the Christmas tree.
    My explanations that Christmas trees are supposed to go up after Sinterklaas (December 5), not on August 33, are of course falling on deaf ears.
    I fully expect to loose the battle :smile:

    Maybe she is using the same calendar as the children and old people that asked me for Christmas over the past few days ...

    I remember being in BPI in August a few years back and they were already playing Christmas music!! I could not believe my ears!! In October I had people asking when I was going to put my tree, and I said "After Halloween AND Thanksgiving!" Of course they didn't understand that!!
