RE: Inflicting Deafness Days Before December 25

Nice to hear thoughts about Christmas from childhood.
I live in their story and the joy of what you do.
Are sure you looked forward to doing it every year.
Little pleasures are great pleasures.
Nice to read @englishtchrivy

thank you .. what was it like in your time?
although.. I remember you must be the same age as my ribbiting friend here so if you don't want to spill it's alright :)

My age is young 63, is a 1954 model.
In my childhood Christmas we were not forced into church, even though large parts of the family went to church. But we always looked forward to Christmas because then we watched short films by Charlie Chaplin, Laurel and Hardy's and many disney movies on canvas that were mounted on the wall of the biggest local photographer in town. Called, but fun for us the kids and it was free. Also remember that we fooled packets of shoes boxes wrapped in paper that looked like Christmas gifts. The package we attached a long band to and put it in the middle of the street and housed us in a port room. When it stopped a car and they went out to pick up the gift we pulled it to us (not so much traffic and many cars at the time).
There was always a lot of fun with it. We youngsters often found innocent things to have fun. Otherwise, Christmas Eve was celebrated traditionally with grandparents aunts and uncles with good food and Christmas packages.

hahaha.. you're not a car!

okay thanks for sharing that it sounds very different, too but so much fun and sounded like not some obligations

I could relate to watching a movie with many kids but unfortunately for us back then it wasn't free and it wasn't a huge screen either, we had to watch at someone's living room with a small tv and the first one we had there was betamax :D

costs 1 Philippine peso which was a lot for us so we just cry ourselves to sleep when we couldn't :D

edit : tell me which channel you hang out on discord and I'll leave you a message there .
