Hi on this slightly wet and slightly warm UK Christmas morning.
At least this global warming lets us turn down the heating a bit at times.
Happy Christmas to everyone.

And the same to you GrimDad

And now it is New Years Day, so Happy New Year Silky and all.

Hello on another cloudy and slightly warm UK Christmas morning.
Again we can turn down the heating a bit at least.
Happy Christmas everyone.

Well Happy New Year to Clare and to all.
And this global warming is not feeling so warm today !

Hi Adam and all.
Hope your Christmas and New Year went well.
For me I am always glad when its over.

Happy Christmas to all this 2009 Christmas Day.
Hopefully good football tomororrow.
And a great 2010.

Well Happy New Year 2010, to Adam and all.

The word Christmas originated as a compound meaning "Christ's Mass". It is derived from the Middle English Christemasse and Old English Cristes mæsse, a phrase first recorded in 1038. "Cristes" is from Greek Christos and "mæsse" is from Latin missa (the holy mass). In Greek, the letter Χ (chi), is the first letter of Christ, and it, or the similar Roman letter X, has been used as an abbreviation for Christ since the mid-16th century. Hence, Xmas is sometimes used as an abbreviation for Christmas.

Well another Christmass morning, a little cold maybe but not that bad, and one week and it's 2011.
Best wishes to everyone.

Hi all and Happy Christmas.
With high unemployment and no snow maybe a mixed bag.
But hopefully a more prosperous New Year.

Happy Christmas all and hoping you are coping with the rain and everything.
Seems 2012 again is not the end of the world and hopefully 2013 will be lucky for everybody.

Hi Grimdad, Not been here for ages. My computer crashed ages ago and I couldn't remember the address. A happy New Year to you too.

Hi all, Happy Christmas once more - well at least we are still around this 2014 though the world may perhaps if anything be getting slowly more messed up ?!

Happy 2015 Christmas !!
A mild non-winter day maybe here in England mostly, but storms due in places at times !!
