A war era tale recalls soldiers trading brandy with French sentries during Christmas time. Officers lightly tolerated convivial wandering as a British guard unit faced a missing sergeant picket and a ruse of hospitality near the line.
Harry Lander writes on resolution as fixed purpose and firmness. The piece notes the annual ritual of vowing to change amid overindulgence and a rough digestion, reflecting on the difficulty of keeping such resolutions in the new year.
A reflective reminiscence recalls childhood New Year resolutions in Portobello near Edinburgh. The piece contrasts youthful vows with adult attempts, sharing memories of a cherished figure and a humorous take on traditional resolutions and social habits at year’s end. It cites joys from a fat pie to watching games and a gentler, passive celebration of life’s rhythms.
