Title: You know it's Christmas when....
Post by: Hyacinth on December 11, 2003, 14:47:31: 'Miracle on 34th Street' is on the tele (ahhhhhh!!)...

ditto 'The Snowman' (but I've never been able to stay awake to see it through to the end ???) ..

the phrase "why not! It's Christmas!!" is repeated many times (usually when I'm asked if I'd like a 'little something' in the first coffee of the morning, then on and on and on and on...)...

AND I GET 'SNOWBALLED'!! (for some, oh OK, Tim, Hugh, praps ::) ) this is when a seemingly innocuous christmas mail suddenly turns into a huge snowball on your screen, then SPLAT!!...and the seasonal fight begins..

What about the rest of you? - Lish
