The winter festive season ...

... used to be called Christmas, but the Christ element is fast becoming history, and us reborn pagans would prefer it that way. Pre Roman invasion, Winter Festival it is. Bring it on Mother Nature.

Furthermore, many of our guests not only don't do the Christ thing but are embarrassed, offended by the very mention of it.

Happy Winter Festival all.

Nothing surprises me down the smoke d00d....
Christmas as usual in Yorkshire mate.....
I'm on the fence about all this 'Christ' stuff, but I will accompany Mrs Fox to Midnight Mass at the local church if she still wants to go....I can't explain it, but it just feels......well ....nicer at Christmas, everybody seems happier....That can't be a bad thing can it?
