		<description><![CDATA[McLovely was in the garden shed on sunday. He found the christmas decorations.
They are now lying, no! They are now strewn across my hall floor. It takes great effort to open the hotpress, causing me to keep a few towels which I found in the tumble dryer in a safe place, solely for my use. Is this selfish? Or is it just laziness? All it would take is a few hours to put up the decorations, but I dont want to! It&#039;s not that I&#039;m against having decorations up in November, it&#039;s more a case of &quot;I DONT WANT TO!&quot; I think the twats up the road from me, in what I now refer to as &quot;The Christmas tree house&quot; have robbed me of the Christmas spirit. Every year in September they start putting up decorations. Then when Ballymena turn on their christmas lights so do they. It seems to be a beacon to every half wit in the country. They congregate on the road outside this house. Cars just stop in the middle of the road to Oh and Ah, never giving any thought that it is a country road, and cars travelling from the town are unaware of their presence in the middle of the road until they have come round a corner and narrowly missed crashing into them! Do I sound bitter? 
I just needed a little rant. I feel better now.
Tonight I have to go out, but tomorrow night I shall put on a Christmas album (Anything but Cliff Richard. Rhonda has a Jive Bunny Christmas Album which would be better!), heat up some mulled wine,(M&amp;S do a lovely one), light the fire, some candles and put my feet up on the sofa and watch McLovely Christmasfy our house.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dear help us all.  As a part-time resident of the Monkeyperson (!?!?!) household, I heartily object to the last comment.

I share your love of nearly all the above things - except for the repeated &quot;and&quot;!  I assume that was supposed to portray the stammer of an excited child, though.

Christmas is here - REJOICE!  I found the coolest new carol today, too...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just right too Hails! Rather than complaining about how early decorations are going up or how commercial christmas is becomming, I am fully embracing it this year. My christmas tree is up (well it is in a pot in the back yard where it has been since just after last christmas) and for weeks I have been singing carols, much to the annoyace of the monkeymrs. Right now- I&#039;m off to dig out my collection of Cliff Richard christmas CDs!]]></description>
