For hundreds of years we have celebrated Christmas and there is a certain magic surrounding the end of December. Images of children making a snowman, Christmas trees dressed in gold and red sparkling in a window and, of course, Father Christmas flying through the sky on his sleigh pop to mind. Christmas is a time for Christians to give thanks for the birth of Christ, and for people to spend time with their loved ones.
Pulling crackers at the dinner table, making fresh footprints in the snow or playing charades whilst the chill wind blows outside are the kind of memories that make Christmas so special. And, for many, getting a festive CD out of hibernation signals the time for a little dance around the kitchen to a Christmas classic.
