Can be enjoyed here<\/a>.\u00a0Fun stuff. \u00a0And a reminder that there was a time when the annual festivities were all filtered through customs associated with the Christian faith. \u00a0Rather than the Christian faith rebelling against or simply accommodating what the World happens to be doing at the moment. \u00a0Bonus features are some links to some awesomely seasonal poetry and short stories. \u00a0And anything that features a nod to Riley has to be worth investigating. \u00a0So please, enter a Catholic take on our little festivities today, and remember, the Gobble\u2019uns \u2018ll git you Ef you Don\u2019t Watch Out!<\/p>\n
