Sorry...wasn't trying to be rude or patronizing with my post. I did hear an Opa...and Epharisto they said meant thank you...but I was just trying to be light-hearted and rework a Christmas carol, since it wasn't yet Christmas or Nativity fast. That's why I put it in the IDK where to put it folder.

All is forgiven Stuart, besides which you have made us think about all the wonderful things about Christmas, including food. Perhaps it's a little early but that just makes the anticipation even more lovely.

I used to trim my christmas tree a couple of days before Christmas. It was a while before I noticed that most people here trim theirs at the beginning of December, especially those with small children. I was always a little smug and used to say that "the right way" was the night before Christmas. The last couple of years I have adopted this "Greek way" of trimming christmas trees and I was surprised at how much joy and anticipation I experienced.
The shops are already full of christmas decorations, believe it or not, so your post fits right in with looking forward to Christmas.
