Today in London, with my aunts and sister, I went to the Geffrye Museum who had a lovely (and free) exhibition of Christmas through the ages with a series of rooms set up in the style of each era of Christmas. They also had a nice restaurant where we ate. I had my first mince pie of the year, while eating it I made a wish as is traditional. I feel that the Christmas season has properly been started now!
Then later we went to The Goring to taste some deserts and have tea and champagne cocktails, all delicious. My family know how to live well ;) The Goring is lovely and if you are in London looking for a posh afternoon tea I recommend it.

Sounds lovely. What a wonderful way to start off the Holiday Season. I put up Christmas lights yesterday and have cracked out the carols. As is customary we are going to watch our first Christmas movie tomorrow night (December 1st). I think it is going to be Love Actually this year.
