    many people regard them as a nuisance, and would prefer to be let enjoy their sleep. Christmas Day is a day of feasting and mirth. Houses, shops, and churches are decorated with holly and festoons of coloured paper. Many people have parties for their friends on that night, and all members of a family try to be together in the family home on that great day.
