Seasons Greeting to all in Avonmora -

Hopefully, we celebrate a little different to the following traditions -
1.In Austria and Bavaria - Image
Frau Perchta is a witch who comes to see who has been naughty or nice. She slits the bellies of bad children and stuffs their corpses with straw. It’s sort of like Santa bringing coal, but with disembowelment instead.


2.Image

Imagine: it is New Year’s Eve. You are a small Welsh child. You hear a knock on the door. You open it. Looming over you is a creature with a horse’s skull, wearing a long, billowing cloak and trailed by people chanting. In the horse’s eye cavities are fake eyeballs. Its mouth is slightly ajar. You are paralyzed in terror.

As you wet yourself in fear, adults around you wish each other happy new year.

Let us know if you have or know of any strange or unusual, old or new traditions -

The Christmas Pickle

Image

The Christmas Pickle is an old German tradition whereby a blown green glass pickle is the last ornament hung on the tree. The first child who can find this pickle on Christmas morning is rewarded with an extra present. So, from the late 19th century these pickles, imported from Germany, were a popular buy in American stores. However, tracing the origins of the story, proves that many Germans are not even aware of this practice and the whole thing is an invented myth!

I only post this to remind you that in America you can market anything if you do it well. And that while Christmas is about something totally different, entrepreneurial minds often capitalize on this and do well utilizing all holidays.
So get out there and get paid lol.

Twas the night before christmas, and all through the town
Not a soul was awake, save for old Mel running around
Going lawn from lawn, yelling obscenities and cursin
About some fat Elf, who had made her awoken.

She yelled lawn from lawn, angry and bitter
about how Santa was a rude home invader.
Mel soon grew tired having been taken from her nap
Meanwhile nearby, someone needed the bucket to crap

Mel mumbled some more, before leaving for home
Making sure as she did, to kick some lawn gnomes
As she left, mumbling about how santa was a creep
He yelled from his sleigh merry christmas, now go back to sleep!
