I get caught in a paradox each year. I can't stand hearing Slade and
other such rubbish when I go shopping, yet I like it to be Christmassy
when I *do* shop. Thus, I normally wait until December before
venturing out. This year, though, we have a baby due on NYE, so we're
trying to get everything done by end of November :eek:

Maybe I should put my own Christmas music on at home and shop on t'internets :p
