I guess Christmas in July is a real thing. At least KFC thinks so and says we should all be wearing ugly Christmas jumpers, putting up Christmas trees, ordering chicken buckets, and having the time of our lives with friends at a party.
That's ridiculous. The only time I ever did Xmas in July was when my late FIL was alive (barely) and I didn't think he'd make it until Xmas. So I did a family Xmas in July so he could enjoy something and we'd have an occasion to remember, and bugger me if I didn't fluke one of the nicest meals I've ever cooked. People still talk about it kinda hopefully around this time of year but I only did it that one time for special reasons. KFC can go to buggery.
That's lovely and precious❤ I hear about people wanting to do Xmas in July from time to time but don't think I've ever participated. It's just kinda weird.
