Talking HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!

Well, I was in Lisbon Airport arrivals last night, and they have a nice big 15-foot tree, the cascading lights, flying Santas on sleighs, everything happily lit up and twinkling. So Heer It Iz, Merry Christmas!




On a mildly more informative note, Lisbon is again building (it's with scaffolding) Europe's biggest Christmas tree - this time 72 metres high! The top section just went on a couple of days ago, but they haven't started decorating yet.

Oh dear, I love Christmas but not in October for goodness sake!

I'd really like a tower that big for my Ham radio aerials.

There is no getting away from Christmas... Florida is nice at Christmas though... everyone has decorations outside the houses, but tastefully done, not like some of the over-done cheap chav cr@p we get in this country

Xmas should not be thought about until 1st December IMO. Advertising and dressing up shops so early just dilutes the whole thing.

There was a Christmas tree up in the centre of Bristol in September!!!

20% of the year is spent with Christmas decorations up somewhere. Well unless you live in Reading or Birmingham or somewhere like that where they dont have Christmas decorations anymore because its "un-pc" and "offensive to muslims"
