Christmas greetings

I have taken on board criticism that my seasonal posting last year showed that I hadn't quite grasped the spirit of Christmas. This year I am a reformed character, to prove it I have even invested in some Christmas lights to decorate my house during the festive season:




A Merry Christmas to all who read my musings. Nadolig llawen iawn.

  7. Very Merry Mid-Winter's Festival!
    (or in my case, geographically, Mid-Summer's),
    The exclamation, "BAH!" in Gáucho - south Brazilian - speak is an abbreviation for "Barbaridade!" not difficult to understand the translation - "Barbarity!". "Humbug", I guess we can translate perhaps as "Besteira", which could also be re-translated into "Bullshit". Although it exists, I haven't seen any Portuguese translation of Dickens's "A Christmas Carol" to confirm the latter. The former is my own observation. Anyway, have a good one!
