Yupp: I forgot that the dutch celebrate on Dec. 6th, mainly. Sinte Claas. or so.

We do the same in Hungary. Dec 6th is Miklos' name day & we put chocolate santas secretly in places where people can find them, but they never know who they're from

That's the 5th of Dec. And it's Sinterklaas. I don't really like the man too much though.

Who here apart from me and James is going to Midnight Mass?
St. Aloysius, Glasgow does a sterling one (if I do say so myself as an alumni of the attached - and I do mean
attached - educational establishment)... we're talking a carol service that leaves Songs Of Praise in the cold (not hard, over-harmonised trumpet laden crap that it is), cathedral-sized "chapel" , they even had a piece by Arvo Part the two years ago. Enough to give me a Catholic relapse for an hour and a half

Do offer up a prayer for my eternal soul though, there's a dear.

Is that the one Alan Partridge sings in his car? "Listen to this, it'll blow your socks off!"
