    Yaaaay!!! I love Christmas :-) and the Coca Cola Ad is definitely the start of the countdown! Managed to see the Christmas Coca Cola truck in Manchester December last year! There was a gospel choir and it was snowing... very magical! Only 6 weeks left now ;-)

    Celtic Advent (40 days long, to mirror Lent) starts on the 15th November. So then there is every excuse to start being Christmassy! I have a stack of things just waiting...

    Not from the UK but Loooooooove Christmas! Been obsessing over decorations and food for the past week, much to my roommates annoyance. I always have a rule not to listen to Christmas songs till the 1st of December though to keep it special.

    Holidays are coming

    Tease the season
    Watch out
    Look around
    Something's coming
    Coming to town (Coming to your town)

    Dooh dooh dooh...
    Always Coca Cola (Coming to your town)

    Something magic
    In the night
    Can't you see it
    Shining bright (Shining bright)

    Badada...
    Always Coca Cola

    Tease the season it's always the real thing

    YAYYYY! Diet or not I'm going to rugby tackle my Nan when she gets out the roast potatoes and have my head in Baileys Coffees all Christmas eve/day & boxing day! I'm not cheating myself out of a proper indulgent Christmas that much I can assure you :D

    as an American when i watch tv and movies it seems like people in England have more fun at Christmas.

    Love Actually is now my favorite Christmas movie.

    Totally agree with you there, love actually is mine too i HAVE to watch it every year, aswell as muppets christmas carol and miracle on 34th street.

    I think it depends on the people some people are right scrooges lol but i think america celebrates halloween more than we do here x

    I miss Christmas at home, I miss all the rubbish adverts on tv, the drama on eastenders (even though I still watch it here now), the food (it's just not the same here!!), I just miss everything really. The thing I miss the most is being round my friends and family - that just sucks the most.

    Muppets Christmas Carole is one of my favourite movies ever! I watch it every Christmas morning :)

    Halloween is quite big the UK nowa days actually, well at least in some parts(the more studenty areas I suppose). In Brighton its a huge deal we have this massive Zombie Walk leading up to it and everything. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yTLduuvfJm8 see

    The annual Eastenders death is routed in Christmas/New Year tradition, I never watch Eastenders but always watch it around Christmas time, as if it's compulsory.
