First Christmas tree of the season!
Well, we're in the middle of Summer [not even mid August yet] and I saw my first Christmas tree of the season.
mrs ronp had QVC TV on the background whilst doing lunch and there it was - on the "Autumn style" section prominent in the background complete with decorations and mock up presents under the it!!
WTF, it's not even Autumn never mind Christmas.
I really do wish we could have a ban on all things Christmas up until the 1st Dec !!!
and ...... always on the road less travelled 🚧
