When did I say I was fighting a war on Christmas? There was nothing cryptic in my message.
 
I fought AND won the war against the War Against Christmas.
On the Long Island Railroad, Human Resources announced that we're not to wish each other "Merry Christmas" but "Happy Holidays" or "Season's Greetings". Well, they forgot I had a radio and no adult supervision. I contacted all trains under my jurisdiction with a Merry Christmas (in addition to orders and messages). On Christmas Eve or Christmas Day (depending on my schedule) I put on my Santa face and red coat and waved at every passing train as St. Nick. I did this for years. Train crews always asked me if Santa will be at Queens Tower this year. I dared management to come after me. That policy was left to die.
And I'm not Christian.

if your a toff that is part of a grouse shooting party at my hotel you can ignore all covid rules !

we have a group of 9 people just sat in our bar drinking, all sat around a small table, no masks, not eating food, all of which break the current covid restrictions for our area.

my bosses solution, put empty plates in front of everyone so it looks like they are dining !

guess duty of care to staff is not that important.

I now know a new word.
 
Fridge died today yesterday. Actually its probably been bad for a while, but it stopped cooling completely overnight.
On the plus side, my friendly neighborhood appliance store promised delivery of a new one tomorrow.
Probably two to three weeks out had I ordered from one of the big box stores.
 
Bummer Greg. I remember when our last fridge died. The wife purchased one while I was in camp and when I got home, it was running but sitting in the middle of the kitchen. She was unaware that they came in different heights so I had to raise some cupboards up. Of course the stove didn't match the fridge now so out that went
