Apparently, It's Christmas?

Tescos are selling tat this far in advance of Christmas.

Since Scientists have predicted the end of the universe in approximately 5 Billion years; when should we expect to start seeing the shelves stocked with the paraphernalia of the Apocalypse?

Only when you buy it.

It'll shrink down to the size of a singularity, after the first wash...

Is that when it starts attracting fluff and any other floating matter?

The topic was the retail industries insistence on bringing events forwards; often ridiculously so... ;p

So people in Oct, Nov and Dec, should not have birthdays

Choice of cards is depleted because of Christmas

Though that was a relevant point made by Provocative and related to the OP

why not send birthday peeps an early Christmas card; after all, it's the thought that counts?

On the contrary; I don't normally send people cards for any occasion; so sending an inappropriate card would be an improvement?

I actually stopped doing Christmas cards a few years ago - as I could not see the point of writing hundreds of cards, partly cos I thought it was against my feelings about the environment, partly cos I could not be bothered to have to drink several bottles of wine in the process to keep me going. Prefer to call people at Christmas and have a chat.

As for birthdays/ get well etc... yes, I like doing those - they are individual and relate to a specific event in that person's life... but hey - each to their own...
