    What is wrong with people? People dressing up in various costumes after weeks of halloween dressing up to celebrate christmas....in NOVEMBER. We've got another whole month of this crap. It feels like I've had a solid month full of christmas already.

    People will moan about anything. How dare people have a different type of fun than the type I like? How dare they have fun that affects nobody but themselves? Hell in a handcart.

    It does affect me. I'm getting their christmas rammed down my throat, cheapening my enjoyment of the event.

    Wearing the Christmas jumper to 12 pubs is fine with me...even a Christmas hat is...anything else is just showing off.

    We started one at 11 on a Sunday last year after a quick hillwalk, it ended up being far more than just 12 pubs though ;)

    What the hell is with the twelve pubs malarky? NEVER heard of it when I was living in Ireland and now that I don't it's all my Irish friends talk about this time of year.

    Was I living in some bizarre parallel universe or something?
