The big day has arrived! Yes, it’s Christmas, right now in the UK, although I know for some of you in Australia, it’ll all be over now, and the USA still has a few hours to go.
But what is Christmas all about, and why are we all here giving each other presents, and spending money on credit cards we can never afford to pay back?

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to open my presents, and enjoy far too much turkey, roast potatoes, and sprouts, all covered in gravy.
