A British Christmas is a time for friends and family to gather together to celebrate the holiday season. The weather in Britain can be cold and wet, but the warmth of the occasion brings everyone together. The traditional meal is a roast turkey dinner with all the trimmings, including potatoes, vegetables, and a variety of desserts. The tree is decorated with lights, tinsel, and baubles, and children eagerly await Santa's arrival. In addition to Christmas carols, there are also traditional British holiday songs like "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen" and "Adeste Fidelis."
