How are you celebrating?

We can't visit family due to lockdown this year, obviously, so we've had 12 dishes from an Indian takeaway as our Christmas Eve dinner Blush

Happy Christmas eve!

(I'm not Orthodox but there were lots of Orthodox girls at my old Catholic secondary)

Sorry it's been disappointing OP Sad

It's Epiphany here in Cyprus - usually there's a huge crowd at the harbour as the priest throws the cross into the sea but obviously that hasn't happened this time!

Interested in this thread?
