    Isn't it all tinsel and plastic the whole world over?



    In politically-correct countries, it could change its name to Landfill Festival quite easily.

    I have just come back from the Flower Market and there is a HUGE shop full of christmas decs. When you walk towards the flower market from Prince Edward MTR there is a big shop called Brighten on the corner of Flower Market Street and Sai Yee Street. They have the usual cheap stuff, plastic trees and glittery baubles etc but I bought some really pretty brass and mother of pearl tree hanging decs and some glass ones. It was packed at about 2pm today. There are 3 floors and they deliver if you get carried away !! Some of the flower shops have already got nice christmas cactus and poinsettas too.
