Nicely said and a thanks for the bump. As I spent so many holidays "out on the beat" I'm also cognizant of some of the other "denizens" that were out there working the same hours I was before I retired. The hotel clerks, restaurant workers, convenience store workers, ER staff and the like.
My wife wanted to go to the store on Saturday and it was madness. She’s one of those “just one more thing” folks. She didn’t need anything, but what if a Brahmin purse was on sale? I make it a point to smile and try to converse with every worker that engages me, however briefly. It only takes a second and I hope it takes away a little of the sting with not being with family. Merry Christmas to all.

Merry Christmas Tim, and indeed to all Members of TRF.
Christmas Day is less than a couple of hours away here Down Under. The Christmas present the whole country is praying for is rain. Have a great day all (when it rolls round a little later for our friends elsewhere)

Thank you once again Tim for this yearly reminder. It’s even more relevant in these times than when originally posted.
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all.

Thanks for the reminder Tim.
With all that is happening around us sometimes we forget these things. A safe and happy Xmas and New Year to all. Eddie, Janet and family.

To say the least..and thank you for the refresher course. Soo many have suffered and so many are no longer with us. Worse this year than many in the past. It is the worst of times and best of times to reflect and be so ever grateful for being here and mankind's resilience and fortitude to bring us out of the brink.
Seasons greetings to all..and best wishes for a better, healthier New Year 2021.
