Well, I just had my Christmas dinner, a bag of enchilada crisps, and a
chocolate banana. I think I may now indulge in a red wine grog. No snow
here right now, 8° C and light showers with a strong westerly wind.

Should you actually desire to be informed of such things, then try this;

Mike, even with the time difference, it still ain't Xmas yet. I think
you started with the grog and it was all downhill from there :). At
least you can do it all again tomorrow.

Merry Christmas to you and yours,

Gary

Yep. I just emailed Roger Ohlund, and he said the Svedes celebrate on
the 24th. Strange, since all of Christendom know that Jesus was born on
the 25th. In Bethlehem. In a manger. With snow on the ground. And Kings
and Shepherds standing around. And people with wings flying overhead.
And this star doing a gravity-defying thing.

I keep trying to tell my in-laws that they are celebrating on the wrong
day. At least it makes it easier, my family is celebrating today and
theirs is celebrating tomorrow.....I get to spread family time over two
days....YAY!!!!

Happy X-mas.

That's because you need snow for Christmas, and it snows in the summer in
the southern hemisphere (or something like that, I think).

And who knew there were that many blond white people in the middle east back
then.

Except that the snow always falls from right to left,
instead of left to right....

Us Russians always did the Christmas thing on
Christmas Eve. Made things more complicated
for Santa's "helpers."

Actually, when my grandparents left it was still Bohemia, but nowadays if you
say you're bohemian folks think you're a beatnik wannabe. g
