Is the goose fat?

Christmas will not start in Copper properly till the 24th December (cause that is when we will not be here, we will be off!).
On the 1st December we might put up some Christmas decorations!
At some point during December you might hear some Christmas carols being sung, only if you are really unlucky, by us!
The goose is only just starting to get fat so it can't be Christmas.......yet!
I hope this answers those questions, we aren't bah humbugs... we just don't want to spoil the surprise.
