My view on Christmas crystallised several years ago, and it is this -
If we are going to celebrate Christmas over two days, then it should be mandatory that mo preparation begins before the beginning of December.
If we are going to start preparations three - and creeping into four - months before, then the celebrations should last for a whole week.
An eight-week-stress-fest, for a mere forty-eight hours, is utterly barmy and squeezes almost all the pleasure out of the event when it actually arrives, because everyone is too wound up and exhausted to enjoy it properly.

I already have one Christmas family meal booked. Where we prefer to go, if you're not booked by the end of August you may be unlucky.
I have my New Year's Eve bash booked for Mrs NJ and me. It was carried over from last year's cancelled festivity. I always book a hotel for NYE and once again if you do not book by about now you may not get what you want. If you've decided where you want to go there's no real reason to delay booking. There's no money involved and it seems daft to prevaricate and possibly be disappointed.

It will interesting see when Selfridge's open their Christmas department. The pandemic pushed the date back to 12 October last year, and it looks like it might be delayed a bit this year too, but in a more normal year it would be opening about now. (In 2019 their Christmas department was launched on 29 July).
