Brown Thomas are getting in the festive spirit four-and-a-half months early this year

Gets earlier every year

It really does get earlier every year.

High-street chain Brown Thomas is famous for its Christmas displays, and they’re getting in the festive spirit earlier than ever this year – starting preparations for Christmas in the middle of August.

It might be difficult for the public to start decking the halls just yet, considering that the sun has been shining for the past several days, and kids aren’t even back in school yet.

Nevertheless, this Thursday BT will open several Christmas markets in the store, with names like ‘Venetian Christmas’, ‘Santa’s Journey’ and ‘Ice Palace’.

In related news, these guys are getting closer and closer to achieving their goal.

We don’t recommend buying your tree anytime soon, though.

We’re not quite sure how quickly they die, but with 127 days left until Santa comes, we’re pretty sure he’d be leaving presents in a pile of brown conifer pines.
