Christmas decorations and the whole Christmas atmosphere has been promoted by shops and restaurants even earlier this November, so we took to the streets to find out what people think about it, and whether they are still excited for Christmas after this past year of Covid. <\/p>\n

Lauren Blunt, 22, of Fallowfield, said: “Normally I’d be really excited for Christmas this year round.<\/p>\n

“My family would even start buying decorations and then on the 12th of December we would hang them up.<\/p>\n

“But after Covid and the whole lockdown last year, that excitement isn’t really there anymore, because what if we enter another lockdown and we’re not able to see our family?”  <\/p>\n

“Usually they would either spend Christmas abroad with their family or they would come to visit but because of the travel restrictions they’re not able to see all of their family.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
