Many a CARPER likes to have a good old WHINE about the commercialisation of Wobs and how it starts earlier every year etc etc. Yeah yeah stop your YAPPING, we went down to Brighton on Saturday and decided on a bit of early Xmas shopping but we could hardly even find an Advent Calendar and certainly not a nice one. COME ON – it’s the first weekend of November, the feast of MAMMON should totally be in full swing.

Also it’s an Advent Calendar! If there’s one bit of Xmas tat which it is totally justifiable, in fact NECESSARY to get on sale before Dec 1 then it’s the A.C.

BAH HUMBUG.
