It's “that time of year for uncle and aunt again. “
It's December again and the end of 2019 is in sight. So it is again 'that time of year', reason enough for Aunt Coby to be extra fearful of unexpected purchases from her husband, Uncle Frits. Well, last year she was pleasantly surprised with a beautiful Christmas service, but the fireworks war of two years ago is still clear to her mind. Very bright. Therefore, the days leading up to the annual festivities will have to be very careful to prevent any popping elements in time, because aunt is still not waiting for popping.
Every package delivered by friendly or non-friendly parcel deliveries (most parcels are for herself) is critically considered, weighed and rammed. Or, contrary to expectations, would the turn of the year take place without any banging?
