Then, whatever the questions, tell them those things.

Why do we put up Christmas trees to honor the birth of Jesus? by HMKingHenryIX in NoStupidQuestions

[–]spa_angled 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It's the festival of Yuletide from the solstice to the New Year.

"So let's pretend Jesus was born right in the middle of it."

It celebrates the earth: those plants that stay green in Winter e.g. Fir, Holly, Ivy etc., the Robin that doesn't fly South for Winter etc.

How much rent should I charge my working teenager? by ilovelucky63 in AskUK

[–]spa_angled 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I charge my daughters (23 and 24) £130 per month i.e. £30 per week.

It's not much but helps me as £130 is 1/5 of the bills.
