Late Life Crisis - January 2024
It is officially Christmas until the end of 6th January. Those of the Christian tradition (includes those now recovered from sozzled Midnight Mass) might say that you can keep the Tree up until Candlemas - this year 2nd February.

Thus a hangover story - not that type of hangover - from Christmas is not inappropriate at the beginning of month:
Child on the Heath, singing: 'A party in a pear tree.'
Hampstead father: 'No, it's partridge.'
Personally I prefer 'party'
