Meh, I’ve tried them and didn’t reckon much to them? They’re alright but I was expecting more to be honest.

Oh god oh god it's nearly here!

I haven't even decided on what colours of tinsel I'm having on my mantelpiece yet! :slol:

So behind! Unless there's any actual monsters about to turn up at late notice, Halloween can just move right along at this point.

There's only one game in town now. 8-)

Anyone referring to roast potatoes as 'roasties' should be shot.

Meant to ask - does that mean you prefer the caramel to Orange?

Poll added. Do you like the creamy based christmas sweets? I love them, but most people I know don't like them.

Orange over caramel but caramel isn't awful.

I have to spend the whole month trying to avoid Christmas music and shops now. I love Christmas but it's not special if its shoved in your face for over 1/6 of the year.

I keep meaning to make myself a little list of Christmas media to watch/listen to over the period as I always forget and end up not watching a bunch of stuff that I love.

As well as movies there's a bunch of TV show Christmas specials that I like to save up for the festive period as well - watched the Peep Show Christmas episode on Christmas Eve last year and unlike Cauliflower I'd happily see that as traditional. :toot:
