The Christmas season definitely, finally finished yesterday with the feast of the Presentation of Jesus in the Temple, and by now all the cribs will have been taken down and put away. It’s a pity that we don’t have installations like the crib to mark other seasons of the year, but in just two weeks’ time it will be Ash Wednesday and the churches will be a dark and sombre purple: so we will once more see at a glance what season it is.
