Oh the irony of loving winter but disliking the associated holidays. I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Christmas isn't in winter in southern hemisphere

I grew up in NZ - we used to spray fake snow on the windows at Christmas and send cards with winter scenes, reindeer, robins, all that. On the day we'd have a big meal topped off with plum pudding. Bloody ridiculous.

I'm in New Zealand and I know we pretend it's winter. But the season is still summer.

It's a really weird filling since I'm from the UK.
