Tv3 played Spar's under the tree Christmas ad this evening. First ad I've seen so far Ray Foley on the 6 o clock show was wearing a Christmas jumper

Was listening to RefFm this morning and Niall Prenderville was interviewing a man from
Blarney that was going to put up his 8 Christmas trees this weekend. Each of the children has a full size tree in their rooms... To round it off, Niall played a special request for him..
Mariah Carey in all her splendour.... Made a grey day much brighter.....
Was in Costa after that, and their displays are all Christmas themed.. Happy Dayz....

I saw something deadly in Easons earlier. It was a Christmas treasure box...like a
pirates treasure chest...but christmas decorations on it... E8.99 and E9.99 Could be used
as a decoration, or used to fill it with Christmas Presents. Fairly strong as well.

I saw these also.
They also have great looking gift boxes shaped like a book.

I saw an Aldi teaser ad with Kevin the Carrot there during The Chase on Virgin. Appears to have a Peaky Blinders theme.

We have Virgin TV here so only one Christmas music channel at the moment, it's Beats Xmas and I have it on now.

All I've been thinking about all day is can't wait for Christmas FM to start!
