Thanks. Today is the winter solstice so it's not so bright but it is remarkably warm for the time of year – as warm as the summer solstice in June, they say. Hope it's pleasant for you too. Andrew D. (talk) 18:02, 22 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Christmas Day in the Workhouse

It is Christmas Day in the Wikhouse,
And the cold, drama boards are bright
With garlands of green and T-bans,
And the place is a pleasant sight;
For with clean-washed hands and faces,
After a long and languid booze
The paupers sit at the Grotto,
For this is the hour they snooze.

And the guardians and their floozies,
Although the gossip is firm,
Have come in their furs and wrappers,
To watch their charges squirm;
To smile and be condescending,
Put brocade on pauper coats.
To be hosts at the workhouse banquet
They've paid for — with the !votes.

Thanks – that's really quite clever and fits nicely with the point made by the article – that the poem has often been parodied. Andrew D. (talk) 00:00, 24 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

On 25 December 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article In the Workhouse – Christmas Day, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that "Christmas Day in the Workhouse" was a criticism of the harsh conditions in English and Welsh workhouses under the 1834 Poor Law? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/In the Workhouse – Christmas Day. You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.
