It seemed like Christmas officially started yesterday, as there were a few collectors out, rattling tins for various charities. I also went to a Christmas fair at a local church. So to continue the festive season theme, here's Winnie the Pooh as a blow up doll. It's advertising a shop that's suddenly sprung out from nowhere, on a short lease, that's flogging the usual cheap tat that seems to appear at this time of year.
I must be getting old and cynical, as I'm not really a fan of Christmas these days. Are you?
I like to see Christmas preparations, and the Magic in Department stores just like my children do. I also like watching people with their bags and presents in streets, they look satisfied, and happy.
ReplyDeleteOn an other hand, it's true that Christmas period is more and more mercantile! Spending money is the motto nowaday.
This can only be forgiven for being early as it's Pooh Bear! I'm more Bah mbug these days too - yes it's age.
ReplyDeleteYes, where do these shops suddenly appear from?! It's bizarre!
