It's that time of year again which makes me wonder where the year has gone. And I also wonder when we started with all this 'son et lumière' stuff, dressing up our homes like some sort of gingerbread houses come Christmas time?
In Germany they don't say, "Wow, look at the neighbours' Christmas decorations". They say, "Deren Stromrechnung will ich nicht haben".
So it's Ditto from them, and its Ditto from me!
Anyway, it's too late to do anything now: according to my chocolate advent calendar, Christmas is all done and eaten.
*) Or "dito" in German. A gentle reminder about German humour. It often gets lost in translation. Into German.
