My son has just informed us today that he has just booked the same restaurant as last year for us for Christmas Day lunch. I haven't even given Christmas a thought yet - it's far too early in my opinion!!

I booked our return train trips for Christmas with daughter back in early July.

Never booked them that early before

BUT I did get the sleeper cabins that we prefer.

I love Ecclefechan Tarts and don't know why Sainsburys don't sell them all year round.

The mince pies will be out of date if anyone buys them to keep for Christmas.

No way mince pies would ever make it to Christmas in my house. 6 pack would be eaten within a matter of minutes!
