To early for a Christmas tree thread?

Is it too early to be starting a Christmas tree thread?

Reason I ask is I was driving back from Livingston last night and spotted a full blown tree in all it's glory outside a Beefeater restaurant. I couldn’t really believe what I was seeing to be honest!

Anyone else spotted any?

It's October. It's not Christmas. I hate that people start Christmas so early :/

No, it's wrong to even think about Christmas now.

I personally think December the 1st is a little early to start hauling the decorations out. Presently, it's early October, so:

It's Jesus's unbirthday today!

Livingston is the town that time and taste forgot, so that probably explains the tree.

You didn't see the natives swinging from trees too, did you?

Nope it is not the 1st of December yet, so far to early.

I'm feeling particularly unfestive. So I'll join in with the gtfo.

Anything before 1st of Dec is too early. We don't normally start thinking about it until two weeks into Dec at least.

I had a meal on the Strand & the restaurant had a couple around but think they may have been advertising booking up xmas parties.
Wholesomely agree with the mouse mat gifts every single year

I want to see the spooky christmas tree from last year (or was it the year before). It looked evil. Was in someone's house, someone from OcUK.

It's not even Halloween/Bonfire night yet. Christmas shouldn't be on anyone's mind !!!!!!
