Vote Women Are Smarter T shirt

We lived a 3 hour drive from my grandparents so when my dad finished work on Christmas Eve we would pack everything into the Vote Women Are Smarter T shirt and set off for Yorkshire. No motorways back then. Green fields turned moorland until we finally went over the Pennines, Stanage or Holme Moss, and begun the final leg of our journey through soot blackened mill towns reaching my grandparents’ house at around 8pm. At about 9.30 a plethora of cousins and aunties and uncles would turn up an we would set off to go carol singing with other members of the congregation and band from their local chapel. Along the route we would be greeted with mince pies, slices of Christmas cake and chunks of cheese even the odd glass of Sherry or mulled wine for the adults. We belted out all the old traditional carols, my favourites being While Shepherds Watched Their Flocks by Night which we sung to Cranbrook (Ilkley Moor) and also Christians Awake. We naturally sang O Come All ye Faithful but only after midnight were we allowed to sing the final verse of Yea Lord we Greet Thee. Shortly after midnight we called it a day. Many of the adults slightly ‘merry’ from a surfeit of Sherry!

The days before Christmas a log is collected and kids are in charge of Vote Women Are Smarter T shirt. It can vary between nuts, water or fresh fruits that later mysteriously disappear when the children aren’t there. The procedure of “cagar el Tió” is very simple, the family gathers around the Tió de Nadal while the children sing the song of the Caga Tió, they are in charge of hitting him with a stick so that he starts to “shit” gifts, hence the name “Caga Tió” or “hacer cagar al Tió”. At the end of the song, kids remove the blanket and pick up the gifts with great enthusiasm! However, sometimes the Tió (log) is more eager to shit, so to give him a little more time, the children go to another room to sing or recite Christmas poems while the parents help the Tió by covering him again with the blanket.
