- Abstract:
"Walking through the city today," writes Jane Hyde, of Balmain, "I was pleased to see that the City Of Sydney has cast off the anodyne 'Seasons Greetings' to wish us a Happy Christmas. Except that it should be Merry Christmas, guys. A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year." We agree, but then again, we might all count ourselves lucky, according to Alan Robertson, of Aranda, ACT, who refers to our discussion of the reverse Twelfth Night approach taken to such matters in the North Atlantic last week: "Icelandic Christmas customs might not catch on in Australia, given their custom of old hags and cats eating mischievous children." But have you noticed that Iceland has a very low juvenile crime rate, Alan?
