I don't think @ibbhomero is going to be too strict about us having a Christmas thread on the main subforum, so, erm, have at it!
In fact, I'm so confident this will go swiftly, I'm not even going to mention the name Bruce Springsteen in my first three posts 😄

Oh, I just did... Anyway, only twelve days until Christmas! They should write a song about that.
On Christmas Day, I heard a lovely broadcast on the British carolling traditions - just the thing for my anglophile soul.
Corona or not, it was a nice Christmas. I've had worse!
A little late, but everything is just calming down right now here in my house and the Christmas food hangover is real! But anyway, hope everybody had a great Christmas! This year was different for us of course, because of Covid we couldn't have the family together as is usual for us. We are about 16 or 18 every year, but this year it was only us four (my parents, my brother and I). Hopefully next year it'll be "normal" again, but we're healthy and that's what matters! Hoping everybody had a great time, and here's my tree for what it's worth 😁
Merry Christmas, everyone!
Just being the four of us had the advantage that I was able to set the table just how i wanted to!
The screen door slams Santa's sack dropps Like a vision he staggers across the porch As the radio plays Bruce Springsteen singing for the lonely Hey that's me, and this year I want company only Don't bring me socks again I just can't face myself wearing them Don't you run back outside Santa, you know just what you're here for So you're sluggish and you're thinking That maybe you ain't that young anymore Show a little faith there's magic in the night You ain't a miracle but hey you're alright Oh and that's alright with me... Merry Christmas, everyone!
