While I can understand where you are coming from, Christmas is a joyful time of the year for me. It gives me something to look forward to, in the midst of horrible news, miserable weather and people moaning (Not you.
)
I do understand that people enjoy Xmas, but when I was a youngster it would be well past my birthday (in November) before the Xmas thing started to kick in. But it's not just Xmas, take a look at the calendar year, there is not a festival or regular event like mother's day. father's day or valentine's day has ended before they are pushing the next. There are so many these days, halloween, bonfire night, I'm sure i've missed some ...yes, Easter...
To be fair Yogi, I am a moaner on this subject.
