Our window cleaner is a Morris dancer.

It's the only time I've seen him lose his rag.

The true origin of "wassailing " was described by the Venerable Bede 1300 years ago. When two Saxons met for a drink , one would raise his tankard and ask "Was heil " ( What greeting ) to which the other would reply "Trinc heil " and then sipping would begin.
