Mrs Not Andy Naylor, who knows about these things, assures me that all the evidence points to baby Jesus being born in April, probably in 6 BC. King Herod died in 4 BC, so Christ was definitely born Before Christ.

They don’t use BC and AD anymore

It is now CE and BCE. Common era.

All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, public health and Christmas, what have the Romans ever done for us?

Ah, you beat me to it :lolol:

Have found out Mrs NOBO is being induced on the 29th. This has thrown things right out. Not least my for the Arsenal game which are now in tatters.

Accidental post above . Apologies. It does little to answer the question.

As it happens, I’m pretty sure Christmas was invented by Satanists though.
Their cunning anagram for Father Christmas fooled everyone.

In all seriousness in these 'enlightened times' has Black Pete the loyal sidekick to St Nicholas in Holland been airbrushed out or modernised to as not to offend?
