			I don't see the point of mince pies. Not to my taste.

			Nope.  Saturday after Thanksgiving is the earliest.  Fight the encroachment of Christmas! 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	*mince pie. Delicious. My favorite of all the holiday pies. Here in the US we don't have those lovely single-serving ones, though. TPBM has gone over to a prelit artificial Christmas tree.  |

			In the UK you only need to do your own taxes if you're self-employed or a contractor etc.  I'm thankful for this as the American system seems more of a headache. 
		
	
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	TPBM is colorblind.  |
