It's quite all right -- back on the Disc, our winter holiday is Hogswatch. An old solar festival that began with -- well, there's no delicate way to put it -- slaughtering pigs for food to sustain people through the winter. And which over the millennia has become a chance to decorate the house, eat lots of food, get in rows with the family, etc. Odd how these things seem to converge across the universe, isn't it?
There's more, of course, but I won't bore you unless you're really curious.
