The early signs of Christmas.

I’ve just been watching the Last Night of the Proms after having enjoyed several of the Proms this summer, for me this marks an unofficial end to the summer.  Meanwhile today Jamie Oliver has been tweeting about starting work on his Christmas Special for Channel 4.  Also is it me, or have you noticed how early the perfume companies have started to advertise on television this year?  Somewhat like hearing the first cuckoo in Spring, I get the feeling that these are the first signs of the Christmas seasons.
