ReplyDeleteThis is a real Christmas post Di! Well this year there won't be a white X-mas. We have rain and I wait till it has a dry moment for I still have to do some shopping!
ReplyDeleteI wish you the best Christmas ever and as Tiny Tim said:"God bless us everyone".
Wil, ABCW Team.
May your Xmas be filled with many new blessed memories.
ReplyDeleteThey were having a heated discussion about xmas on the radio but the objections was that it was a combination of Greek and Latin From what I gleaned/remember it goes way back in time to the early days of Christianity, but don't quote me on that, LOL.
ReplyDeleteDoesn't look as though it will snow this year at least we've got sunshine forecast briefly.
Wishing you a happy xmas.
Thanks for that explanation.

ReplyDeleteThank you one and all for your kind comments, most appreciated,
ReplyDeleteLack of time stops me from replying to you individually.
Pleased to say we about four inches of snow yesterday, although it's thawed a little, still plenty about for the children to build snowmen!!
Best wishes,
Di xx
How wonderful to go to church at Christmas and come out to thick snow - and even better to go home to a roaring fire!
ReplyDeleteI think x was used by early Christians to symbolise Christ but I still think Xmas is an ugly word!
Hi Liz,
ReplyDeleteClive and I were in the church choir so we had to attend all the Christmas services.
The parents usually accompanied us to the Evensong service, mother was usually ensconced in the kitchen preparing the wonderful Sunday Roasts she was renown for!
Aye...golden memories again !
This is the wonderful thing about partaking in ABCW, it makes one think and write about anything you fancy for the selected letter,
Why don't you join in ?
love,
Di xx
