One of the things I recall about Guyanese Christmas is "nimble". A kind of mite that infests setting fowls. They were prevalent in December. I remember an enlightening discussion about it. I was vacationing at my aunt's home and I was helping my cousin to tend to the fowls and collect the eggs. I asked her why hens got nimble only at Christmas time. She said: "Dem nah want abee mek Crismus cake wid dem egg, suh dem ah friken abee wid dem nimble dese." Was she right?
