Christmas Pressure, is when the Public send far more Mail than normal (Presents, Cards, etc.). It has already started, but will continue to get worse, until the final Posting Dates for Christmas.

If you mean the Christmas Pressure period for SA and OT, it is starting this year in my MC on Monday 10 December, a week later than last year, and two weeks later than it used to be a few years ago. However RM obviously forgot to tell the public as our MC has been full to the seams last week.
