Its the middle of winter, it fucking cold outside, the days are short.
A holiday is just what is required. Presents and food and, sadly, decorations (daughter insists - wife is quite keen too).
Anyway we open the doors to family and a host of waifs and strays and eat till we can't sit down anymore.
What's not to like? - call the festival whatever you want - just wish me merry Xmas, happy hanukah, happy holidays or whatever with a drink in your hand and one in mine.

Kuusi palaa, ja on viimeinen kerta kun annan vaimoni laittaa jouluvalot!
