As the last business day before Christmas draws to a conclusion and weary retailers with aching feet and almost exhausted good spirits look forward to the end of day and the rest of us swing into holiday mode with enthusiasm, may we take this opportunity to wish you and your family the very best for Christmas, Hanukah, the festive season or whatever you call it and however you celebrate it.  And may the new year bring you and yours all that you could possibly wish.

My wife sings in a Sweet Adelines Barbershop Chorus so permit me the indulgence of signing off for Christmas, as they sing this Christmas favourite.
