This site will show a photo taken each day from where I live, Oxford, United Kingdom. Photos on this site would have been taken within 5km of Carfax Tower in the centre of Oxford

It's happening already!
Not sure if this is happening in your part of the world, but it has started in Oxford. This photo was taken in the Clarendon Centre in Oxford this afternoon. Yes I know you can see it as well, the Christmas Decorations are up already, help me!!
We've already had some Chrismas decorations in public places and malls since early October. Now that Hallowe'en is over, watch out. November 1 is officialy Christmas season and by December 24 everyone will have had enough of tacky.
It's a sad reflection on the creeping commercialisation of religious festivals. It's just the same up here, with some shops having Christmas merchandise on show since late September!!
Don't know if Hyde DP was the first to show Christmas Lights up in early October, but now several DPs have posted them -- and I fully agree -- it is far too early.

I believe Christmas decorations will soon appear here in HK...very commercialized ones
