Winter wonderland

Part of me still feels like its wrong that Christmas lights are up... It's doesn't feel one bit like Christmas yet. Is it my age and lack of excitement for Christmas or am I not alone In the fact that this has been the quickest year so far??
Had a visit from family this weekend and so we took a walk round parts of Kensington and ended up popping over to the hyde park winter wonderland where I got myself a cup of mulled wine (in attempt to find my Christmas spirit) and looked round the hundreds of stalls filled with Christmas treats and sweets and then I sobbed over the fact no-one would join me on one of the many funfair rides! It actually felt like winter for the first time yesterday, I better start my Christmas shopping...
