Title: Christmiss
Post by: The Bald Eagle on 26 November, 2020, 06:22:15 AM
My family have reluctantly agreed that it would be too dangerous for our more elderly relatives (including myself) to have our traditional family get together at Christmas.

Instead we are going to postpone Christmas for six months and will have our CHRISTMISS day on Saturday 26th June 2021. By that time we should be all vacccined up and therefore able to belatedly celebrate Christmas without the fear of Coronavirus hanging over us.

Just a thought.  :idea:

Funny, I was just thinking what a good idea that would be. Trouble is, Christmas isn't quite the same in the middle of the summer. Some years ago, I spent Christmas with my family in New Zealand. I just couldn't get into the swing of it! <Yeahthat>

A very good idea if enough people signed up for it.

I'm not so sure - the weather might be quite Christmasy in June.  This was june this year!  :o  (https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/snow-hits-uk-middle-june-22215368)
