When you're a couple of weeks away from your 74th birthday, your only blood relative lives 150 miles away and your daughters (for no obvious reason) haven't spoken to you for a decade, it'd be easy to go the full 'bah humbug'. However, Linda and I have some wonderful friends (and in any case, quite enjoy the tackiness of Christmas lights) so we still make the effort! (Mind you: some of our neighbours have vast displays that go up in November and totally put paid to astrophotography!)
