I guess all of my friends in the Far East will celebrate Christmas many hours before me, and all those in the Far West will celebrate after me. Somewhere in the middle I guess we will all meet up but in case I miss anyone I thought I’d say Happy Christmas to you all now.

For those of us not in war zones or places of natural disaster I can only say we are very fortunate and to those who are in those dreadful situations may God bless you and keep you safe. X x x
