Your Shout – from my Christmas mailbox

Predictably, my comments about Christmas caused a stir, with many people accusing me of being a stick-in-the-mud, but a fair few agreeing with me. Louise wrote to me a few weeks ago, saying that she had just come back from Scotland where the Christmas lights were up so early, there was no space for Halloween decorations! Louise used to work in a bakery and started making mince pies in July, so that shops could freeze them. After packing 30,000 mince pies a night for several months, no wonder she was sick of the sight of them by the time Santa made an appearance!

Several people – too many to name check – will fork out for a cleaner planet, or so they say. It will be interesting to see how much tax the government can get away with charging.
