Offer expires 29th March 2009. HAVE you ever wondered how holly and ivy came to be so very closely associated with Christmas? If so, Dan Booth, head gardener at Brodsworth Hall, the Victorian country house situated between Barnsley and Doncaster, has the answer: “Like many of our Christmas traditions, the story of holly and ivy goes back well before the birth of Christ, but over the centuries, ancient traditions have been incorporated into the Christian festivities we enjoy today,” he said. “For the Romans, holly was a symbol of good health and prosperity, so was often given as a gift in the new year, whereas pagans used holly as a heal- ing plant, believing that it also protected you against evil spirits and lightning strikes.” Holly was also said to have sprung from the steps of Christ when he walked the Earth, the pointed leaves representing the crown of thorns placed on his head on the cross, and the red berries symbolising the blood he shed. Evergreens have long been established as part of the Christian tradition, par- ticularly at Christmas, as they were thought that DECK THE HALLS WITH BOUGHS OF HOLLY ... these plants represented eternal life, with people often hanging bouquets of evergreens, including holly and ivy, as a symbol of Christ around the Christmas period – although again, it is thought that this is a Christianisation of the Norse tradition of ever- greens being hung over a door to keep evil spirits away. These ‘Holly Boughs’ were common in many medieval households, although when Cromwell and his puritans came to power, like so many other celebratory traditions, these symbolic representa- tions of Christ were banned. However, in defi- ance, many people just renamed the garlands, from Holy Boughs to Holly Boughs. Often, mistletoe would be added into these deco- rations, and many people still followed the Viking tradition of kissing under mistletoe as a sign of friendship. Many visitors throughout December are expected to buy holly for their own decorations from Brodsworth Hall, as Dan Booth’s team of gardeners commence the annual pruning of some of the 250 holly bushes and trees throughout the grounds. Said Dan: “We have one of the largest collections of holly varieties in the north, with between 120 and 150 different species spread throughout the grounds. At this time of year, we tend to prune the bushes back strongly – hat-rack- ing – to encourage lots of new growth and spikier leaves, so we take a lot of the trimmed branches down to our admissions desk for people to take away – there are some wonderful different foliages, including smooth leaved and varie- gated varieties.” Christmas rescue remedies IF YOU are feeling a little under the weather during the festive season – whether it’s through overindulgence or an attack of the common cold – perhaps our ancestors could have some sage advice. Then again, maybe not. Remedies used through- out history include: ■ English ivy: the ancient Roman philosopher Pliny suggested that eating yel- low ivy berries before a big night out would prevent drunkenness. That said, Pliny’s medical knowledge can be looked upon with a sceptical eye: he also suggested that kiss- ing the hairy muzzle of a mouse would cure a cold. ■ Prayer: The medieval Christian church believed that colds were caused by demons getting into the nose. This allowed part of the sufferer’s soul to leave their body, and is the his- toric reason why we cover our noses when we sneeze! ■ The Upward Purge: After overindulging, the Romans would head to a special room called the vomitoria, where the lord or lady would have the back of their throat tickled by a slave to make them vomit. After a glass or two of warm water, they would return to the party to con- tinue their indulgence! ■ Phlegm on the chest was treated by swallowing live snails, thought to eat up the mucus.

IN THIS somewhat gloomy economic cli-mate, we all deserve the chance to let ourhair down.
Most companies are providing theirstaff with some form of Christmas enter-tainment, even if it is slightly lower keythan in previous years.
However, it’s a well-known fact thatsome of us have a tendency to overdo iton such occasions, forgetting our man-ners, our morals, and the fact that wehave to go back to work the next weekand face our colleagues.
Fish4jobs, the popular recruitment web-site, has compiled a list of tips on how tospare yourself the shame:
■ Pace yourself – remember it’s not adrinking competition just because thedrink is free. You can have as much funon less alcohol, and have the added
bonus of remembering the evening.■ Water – drink plenty of water
between alcoholic drinks.■ Food – make sure you have eaten
plenty on the day of the party and ifthere is food on the night do try and linethe stomach with as much as you can. Itreally does help.
■ Kissing under the mistletoe – justbecause you have had a drink and youfancy the guy or girl in accounts, it does-n’t mean that you can launch yourself atthem at the Christmas party. If you thinksomeone likes you, be subtle andapproach with caution. Alcohol-inducedlust is often regretted the next day.
■ Dancing on the tables – never awinner at a works do, even if your boss isup there grooving away to Abba with abottle of champers in one hand and the
THE Yorkshire coast is the per-fect antidote to the stresses andexcesses of Christmas – you canpaddle in the sea, write your NewYear’s resolutions in huge letterson the sand, or race up Whitby’s
famous 199 steps and catch yourbreath as you drink in the headyviews from the cliff-top abbey.
These are just a few sugges-tions for getting away from it alland working off your Christmaslunch from the Yorkshire Moorsand Coast Tourism Partnership.
Other bracing ideas from theorganisation are building a raftas part of the Boxing DayCharity Raft Race aroundScarborough Harbour or joiningthe Scarborough Lions for theircharity New Year’s Day dip theicy North Sea.
Coastal Christmas: A trek up to Whitby Abbey may be just the thing for the festive stress and indulgence.
OFFICE PARTY SURVIVAL GUIDEreceptionist in the other. Just becausesomeone else is doing it, doesn’tmean it’s ok.
■ Taxi – if your company is notsupplying transport home, pre-booka taxi before the night begins. Youcan always change the time if you
are having more or less fun thanexpected, but it’s better to be pre-pared than be stuck somewhere withno way of getting home.
■ Money – always make sure youhave enough money to get homesafely. This saves you having to stop
outside cash machines when drunk.Never the best plan for safety.
■ Phone a friend – if you arestuck somewhere or in a pickle, call afriend and let them know what youare doing. Best to be on the safe side,especially late at night.
