                    Don't knock it, in a couple of weeks B&M will be selling off all their gardening stuff for pennies to make room for their Christmas stock.

                      I used to think that the only positive thing of Halloween was that it kept the Christmas stuff from entering the shops before November. Unfortunately, this was a short lived bliss and now the retailers have found a way to display both Halloween and Christmas stuff all at once starting around September. And if you look closely, the Easter egg hunt gear is there as well. :gaah:

                          Upsy, would I really lie about such a terrible thing? Yes, Santa died at 2 30 at the dentist...bad reaction to the anaesthetic.
                          I checked and he would have been 1750 years old next year......so young and so tragic:sad:

                          Sheal you can’t be so cold hearted to forget him already....

                              I'm not talking about Santa Verdun but Christmas. It must be around a couple of decades since I gave it up. :)
