Thank you to our Sponsors
I had a festive picture prepared for you, but the power supply of my work computer gave up and I couldn't be bothered to do anything about it right now. Won't take a new pic as I suppose everybody in Europe is fed up with snowy scenes already... so you'll need to do with this one from last year 🙂
Hyvää joulua ja onnellista uutta vuotta!
Merry Christmas to all Beoworlders from the former viking territory of Vestri Kirkjubyr.

God Jul och Gott Nytt År from the former Danish city of Åhus!
Wow! It's nice to see this thread, originally posted as a thinly veiled "entrapment" device to try to attract new Wednesdayers©, is actually attracting those in the festive spirit!🤒
I will be celebrating both the Eve (birthday) and the Day itself (still got kids at home) - can I take this opportunity to wish everyone, friends and foe, regulars and foot-fall, the Jolliest of Christmas' and the very Happiest of New Years!
I hope everything over the holidays works out even better than you planned and that Santa still leaves you something you really want (as old as you are)👍
(Only two sleeps left..................... )🙂
Merry Christmas from Amsterdam and a cry for help from The Netherlands. We are snowing in and our country is running out of salt! Help us! The trains are all messed up. The roads slippery. We can't handle this type of weather. Could some scandinavians come over and show our country how you people up north handle this perfectly every year?
ur country is running out of salt
You might have to start using zoute drop instead ;-)

My area of the UK has 12 days of salt left..............providing it cut's the number of treated roads to 30%!😕
However, Christmas is what you make it - accept your lot, keep smiling and be as nice as you can to everyone - Merry Christmas!🙂

Over here, it's too cold for road salt now! Temperature has now stayed below freezing for five weeks in a row and Helsinki area has the most snow for this time of year since 1915.
The answer is proper winter tyres and enough snow plows - which will then sit unused for most winters in Central Europe.
Tonight's news actually revealed that the Finnish aviation authorities are planning to sell knowhow on how to keeps the airports open after they have been asked for it by some other countries. Helsinki airport was last closed due to bad weather in 2003, and it lasted for half an hour...
Temperature now -22°C and dropping - good thing I don't need to go far tomorrow 🙂

I assume you've already bought a card then!👍
(btw - should've been out to PQ tonight, finished work, birthday tomorrow etc............. expected a really good night out with my pals - taxi cried off because of weather..............sitting at home drinking tinnies as I type this!🙁
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO EVERYONE!
BUON NATALE A TUTTI!
