The FT team is taking a welcome break, and will return to normal service in early January. In the meantime, have a Merry Christmas, Yuletide, Midwinter, Yalda, Hannukha, Xmas, Holidays, holiday, Festivus, solstice, Saturnalia, Hogmanay, New Year, or Bah! Humbug! or anything else appropriate, according to your preferences.

May the coming year bring you peace and happiness.
