David - many thanks and very best wishes to you and yours.
This side of the Big Pond, we still haven't gotten used to the formulation "happy holidays".
So at the risk of causing cultural offence, I wish all our members the very best of times during the Xmas period.

I add my voice to the chorus of holiday cheer offered to the DPF extended family.
Like Jan, I extend my wishes to all for a Merry Christmas -- a peaceful and lasting celebration of all that is good in the human spirit.
I'll even go so far as to amend that wish to a HAPPY Christmas to those who favor that odd construction!

At midnight, the road before pristine,
a meditation in four-wheel-drive, snow blowing sideways
Near the end of a three-hour snowshovelling
a neighbor appears with shovel saying,
"Looks like you could use some help"
Politics deep and drifting
You the best of neighbors
Every good thing at this magical season
As we plow into the new year

My first cousin is in very poor health right now.So,even though I don't celebrate Christmas personally,I would like to honor him by posting this video.I can remember as a teenager watching the Vince Guaraldi trio on KQED television playing "A Charlie Brown Christmas".My cousin Paul was his drummer at the time.
