	Forgive me ................. for I am no doubt virginal in the ways of nativity celebrations. But I have long been under the impression that seasoned Ladies do commence their preparations for the next Yuletide within days of the previous one ! Or am I dragged from my slumbers on Boxing Day under false pretences ?
