Santa Lucia
Thursday, 6 December 2007 11:19 amDarn, I have just realised, I am going to be having a coursework crisis on my saint's feastday. Bother. (St Lucy's day is December 13th and my coursework is due in on the 14th. Maybe I can persuade my lovely girlfriend to make me CAKE at the weekend? Hmmm...) I haven't got my candle-crown here any more, so I can't celebrate properly *anyway*.

It's very important over there, well the Greek Orthodox Church takes everything pretty seriously.
It's a lovely thing to do though :-)
