Actually, Charmion - I think there might be something for January, or it could be February. School here close a week or so before Christmas and start up again in late January, many families have holidays in that time. Ozzies don't have Thanksgiving; our holiday season starts on Christmas Eve and continues until New Year. Australia Day is 26th January, and anyone who hasn't already done so is back at work the next day. If my memory doesn't play me false there is a similar sobriety thing happening in February - taking a break from the comsumption of alcohol and the partying of the previous several weeks, and all that stuff. Not being much of a drinker means I don't take any notice when these events roll around.
