THE letter written by Elizabeth Smith (You Say, Wednesday, November 5) was very well put together and summed up all my family's feelings on the early start to Christmas.

It's comforting to know that such a young person "dares" to mention the Christian calendar.

I hope she has many like-minded friends of her generation.

If so, there's hope for us all to put an end to this ever-increasing greed, leading to three months out of 12 called Christmas Season.

MRS W BOYLE,

Leicester.
