RE: Easter is Coming
December 8, 2011
December has arrived and winter is here for sure.
The heating is on full whack and the early mornings are now spent de-icing the car windscreen rather than watching the eight minute episode of Thomas The Tank Engine on Five while eating toast with marmalade washed down with a hot tea.
The 5am drive into work is beginning to be piss me right off lately, why you ask? I'll tell you why.
No other cars are on the road, when I approach junction traffic lights they automatically turn to green and I cruise between 30 and 40 mph with Heart Radio playing Today's Best Mix of Music, then from a side turning off Whiteladies Road this little car pulls straight out making me reduce my speed to an average of 22 mph for a good mile and a half. It seems we get Sunday Drivers every sodding day even when the official 'Sunday Drivers' are still tucked up in bed.
Christmas is just weeks away, towns and cities have launched the Christmas spirit and held big light switch on's across the country and every one is shopping for that perfect gift. Christmas tunes are played on the radio and in all major shopping centre's.
Only last week I was in my local Asda grabbing some Pizza's for a night in with friends when I stumbled across half an isle stocked with Easter Eggs. WTF, we are four months away from Easter. We still got Christmas, New Year and Valentines Day to get through and now we are faced with Easter Eggs. I'm sure it won't be too long before supermarkets will star selling these 'Seasonal' items all year around. Is it a marketing scam or is it what we, the customer, want easy access to?
Is it just me picking up on such things, let me know your views. Get in touch at info@jngroup.biz
