I know Starbucks can be hit and miss but their fudge flavoured hot chocolate is the stuff dreams are made of. I could drink gallons of it!

All this talk of chocolate and hot chocolate, I feel like I should plan a trip to Dublin just to visit Hotel Chocolat.....but I'm not sure I'll fit it in between now and Christmas.
I might just have to try insomnia instead....

It's a teeny tiny shop/cafe so I'd stick with Insomnia, or another local option, unless you'll be in Dundrum anyway. Dundrum is a nightmare at Christmas.

Ooh which one did you have?

I was listening to BBC Radio 1 yesterday and they had a conversation about people who listen to Christmas songs all year round. They played a few clips of songs too. There are plenty of Christmas nuts out there!

There’s a Christmas film on E4 at the moment. The Dog Who Saved Christmas. On a non-Christmas channel! There’s no denying that Christmas is here now.
