But doesn't Christmas always happen immediately after August Bank Holiday??

[wulfrunian]

No, Hallowe'en is jsut after August Bank Holiday, then Christmas straight after that.

And Hogmanay lasts till Easter. Or at least the hangover does.

At least Arcturus appearing in the east gives one hope that Xmas will soon be gone

Melt over a pan of boiling water & serve poured over hot cross buns (another non-seasonal seasonal product). Serve Xmas pudding (ditto) to follow.

I saw it too, while driving back from my dark site at dawn yesterday, twinkling beautifully against the lightening sky - took me a moment to recognise it.

Just had my first mince pies - bought the box a week or two ago and the expiry date is end of October. Better get some more to celebrate the end of BST.
