Christmas in October??? Please NO!!
Yesterday after work I needed to get some things at the supermarket at our local mall.
I wandered past Checkers in Kenilworth Centre and had to stop in my tracks – while considering whether shop there or at Pick n Pay further along. 
Other than the usual Checkers logo, there were trimmings all over the entrance of the shop!
(We’ve barely come out of winter in Cape Town, for heaven’s sake!)
Needless to say, I walked right past Checkers as I am not ready for Christmas. Not that I will be until 24 December!
Fortunately Pick n Pay in Kenilworth Centre had no such decorations in their store – yet.
However, they’ve decided to redecorate their entire store! Everything moved from where it’s previous location.
I stood there shell-shocked!
I’ve been a regular shopper in that store for at least the last 7 years and could be in and out of that store in a few minutes.
If all the tills were regularly manned, I could probably cut down that time in half!
Maybe the shopping gods are all trying to keep me out of the mall.
So far they’re doing a great job!

Watched them put up the decorations this Sunday at our local checkers.
if you don’t mind me asking who do you host your blog through? I got the domain for my site and am looking at a few options.
