WOTD is strangely reticent about the origin of wing-ding, saying only that it is a rhyming compound from 1920s America. I know wingdings as a sort of pictorial font, so I was surprised to find that it means a party, or celebration.

| We have had a super wing-ding today, as Jacob, Philippa, Evie & Max, Sarah & Blue came here for our family Christmas gathering. Some years it is on 25th December, but other times it has to wait a few days until we are all available. It was a real joy, everyone was happy and well fed, there were presents lovingly and thoughtfully given and received and I had the best time. Neil has worked hard in the kitchen and all the clearing up is done. Now it is time to finish the prosecco,pack my suitcase for tomorrow and chill out to Genesis, Nad Sylvan and the Prog sampler CD (Shining Pyramid, The Enid, Kiten Pyramid and Edison's Children) |
