Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for 2021

We would like to wish you a Merry Christmas and Best Wishes for the New Year as 2020 draws to a close.

This has been a year like no other, with some businesses seeing trade instantly dry up when the first lockdown hit whilst others have never been busier and literally haven’t had a day off for the whole year… So, whether you celebrate Christmas, have already celebrated Eid, Hanukkah or other notable festivals, we hope you get a well earned rest over the four day bank holiday weekend.

As this strange year comes to an end, we’re going to attempt a break here at Tamebay. The support team, normally based in the office but for most of this year working remotely at home, are all turning their devices off for some down time. This will mean there will be no daily emails from Tamebay until they return to work on the 4th of January.

While we hope you’ll also be taking things easy although we know for many Christmas plans have been thrown into disarray. Some will be spending Christmas day alone while others will only be seeing immediate family that they live with. If you’re around on Christmas day and want to swap messages, I’ll be checking comments on this post throughout the day so feel free to pop by and say ‘Hi’.

We recognise that this year there is a lot of unfinished business, both with the final throes of Brexit and the ongoing pandemic and current international transport challenges. We’ll keep an eye on things and will post updates over the holidays when major events happen, so if want to keep up to date check Tamebay.com rather than your email inbox.

We’d like to say thank you to the many readers who keep us on out with comments, the odd correction and especially to those who help us with prompts to make sure we get the most relevant news published as quickly as possible. We’d also like to thank the many Tamebay partners who support us commercially, without who Tamebay wouldn’t be possible.

The full Tamebay team are a mixed bag of religions and, recognise that this is also reflected in our readership… so whether you are celebrating a Christian Christmas, Jewish Hanukkah, Pagan Yule, Japanese Omisoka or simply enjoying a secular festival, we’d like to sincerely wish you a merry Christmas and we look forward to catching up in 2021.
