    I went to my local Homebase (Leicester) at 8am this morning & they have moved all of their christmas section to just inside the door and have hardly anything left. Certainly no crackers!

    They obviously think it is more important to put their furniture display where all the christmas stuff was. Bah humbug to Homebase!!
