Taking a break
Christmas is coming, the goose is getting fat... the ham, or whatever else you choose to partake in, is on the Yuletide table waiting to be heartily devoured with family, young and old. It's the festive season and family and friends come together in the joyous celebration of life!
16 December 2022
THE holiday season is an opportunity to spend time with family, friends and loved ones, and reflect upon our lucky we are living on the Central Coast. It is also a time to reflect upon positive resolutions for 2023 and beyond.
Let us all come together with friends and family to share and enjoy, to laugh and to love and to cherish the importance of sharing memories and the special feeling that this season brings.
The Central Coast is also blessed with people from different cultures who will come together and celebrate the festive season by participating in their own special traditions and customs, observing days of religious significance, giving and receiving gifts, and eating traditional Christmas foods.
Whatever your plans are to celebrate the season, the Grapevine News wishes you a happy festive season, a healthy and prosperous New Year and last but not least... stay safe!
So, here’s to a bright New Year and farewell to the tribulations of the year past; here’s to the things that are yet to come, and to the memories that we hold dear. So, from the Grapevine’s family to your family - Happy Holiday.
