I have a confession to make: I had never watched a single episode of Seinfeld! Indeed, until recently I didn't even know what or who Seinfeld was and certainly had never heard of the Seinlanguage.
Retirement has allowed me to plug many holes in my 'education', and I've since learnt - but not learnt to love - about Seinfeld and Festivus, a secular holiday celebrated on December 23 as an alternative to the pressures and commercialism of the Christmas season.
If you find tinsel distracting, watch this episode but don't air your grievances with me.
