    Please translate with this translator: https://www.bing.com/translator/



    I don't speak English either and have to translate all the time. I have no problems with it !!


    Sorry


    I've seen superstars do it and it works well. Everything as it should be in German.

    I'll have to check it out tomorrow. My neighbor across the street from me just passed away and I'm very upset right now. She had cancer and Hospice had started coming every day but just now the ambulance was there and then they left. I can't even think straight right now.

    Thanks @Pcj! I live in a 55+ retirement community and it took me like forever until I decided to move in because I feared ambulances going up and down the street. This was the first ambulance since I moved in 7 years ago. It's so sad with this virus and the deaths and now this poor woman had cancer and she's now gone on to a better place.

    @Spinnifix we celebrate Christmas on December 25th in the UK, I usually cook aTurkey or a Chicken roast and we usually chill out on our own as we don’t have any children or relatives close by. We did spend it in Belgium with my husbands niece about 5 years ago which was fun. Also we spent 1999/2000 Christmas and New Year at my brother-in-laws in Germany (which I spent most of in bed with flu 😷 ) so I know your traditions. Almost forgot we had a break in Austria one Christmas too for a few days at a lovely little hotel, we had a lot of snow and it was great fun with sleigh rides and trips out on our coach.

    Hi @Spinnifix, we celebrate Christmas here in Canada but when I was a child, we would go to church on the 24th and go to bed when we got back. Around midnight my father would pretend to be Santa and jingled bell’s to wake us up ( I have 3 sisters) we would run up to see if we could catch a glimpse of Santa and every year my father would say “ You just missed him”😂 It’s called, un réveillon( in french) we would open our presents, have a big meal that my mother prepared, then go back to bed, at least we got to sleep in 😅 later on Christmas Day we would visit are grandparents and have supper there but before anyone could leave, my grandfather would always bless the family, une bénédiction ( in french). That’s more the french way.

    When I had my children, my husband ( who’s english) and I decided to do Christmas the traditional way. We put the kids to bed, they would put milk and cookies ( had to be fresh baked) for Santa and they would leave carrots 🥕 for the reindeers so they could have a snack too. They would wake us up usually around 5 or 6 in the morning. I still remember hearing there little feet, trying not to make noise at 2 in the morning, I would tell them to go back to bed 😂 we would open the presents 🎁 and have a big breakfast and then go visit the grandparents 😊

    This year will be different, my oldest has moved out, my daughter might not be with us for supper, she will be with her boyfriend ☹️ and can’t visit the grandparents because of Covid 😔 🤷🏼‍♀️ C’est la vie 😊 It’s my youngest son’s birthday today and he is 17 and he asked me if I was going to bake cookies for Santa, “ Are you still doing that? I asked him “ Yes, he says, it’s a tradition 🥰 I guess I have to make cookies for Santa again this year 🤣🤣

Hey! Would you like to give us your opinion?
