4 January – 10th Day of Christmas

If you’re a farmer or a sailor, and you’re still worrying about future weather, perhaps this traditional lore will help you. Look at the weather today. What’s it like? Make a note, because it will be the same in November.

5 January – 11th Day of Christmas: Twelfth-Day Eve

Almost the end of Christmas now. But wait! WHAT ABOUT THE WASSAILERS?

Here we come a-wassailing,

Among the leaves so green,

Here we come a wandering,

So fair to be seen.

Love and joy come to you

And to you your wassail too,

And God bless you

And send you a Happy New Year

And God send you a Happy New Year.

(Words traditional English, probably 17th century)
