I like both ads.

Just wish they would let us get into December before they bombard us with all their commercial, spend, spend, spend, spend, brainwashing money extracting ads.

I like the Barbour one 🎄🎄🎄🎄⛄️⛄️⛄️⛄️

While I can understand where you are coming from, Christmas is a joyful time of the year for me. It gives me something to look forward to, in the midst of horrible news, miserable weather and people moaning (Not you.)

I do understand that people enjoy Xmas, but when I was a youngster it would be well past my birthday (in November) before the Xmas thing started to kick in. But it's not just Xmas, take a look at the calendar year, there is not a festival or regular event like mother's day. father's day or valentine's day has ended before they are pushing the next. There are so many these days, halloween, bonfire night, I'm sure i've missed some ...yes, Easter...

To be fair Yogi, I am a moaner on this subject.

I do get what you mean about the constant commercial pushing of the next event.

 Nah, I recognise a moaner when I see one, and that’s not you.

Here's that M&S ad:

A warning to Baz that you may find this one very traumatic

TBH i'm not moved by any of this years adverts 

Try this - sweet but quite odd for an Xmas choice

This is my fave so far - well done

Yes, yes, all very well, but where is the Coca Cola lorry? It’s the only Christmas advert that really matters

Exactly Rexi 

Like the M&S one, but then it's Paddington, so a bit of a no-brainer.

Maybe Moz the Monster will grow on me, but I'm rather "meh" about it at the moment. Still only the second-best use of "Golden Slumbers" this year, IMO...
