BER months

When I got my coffee this morning Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer was playing on the raido. Geez a little early I thought, but when I asked my colleagues I found out that there will be a lot more carols to come. September 1st marks the start of the the "BER" months; September, October, November and December. Apparently in the Philippines this also corresponds with the festive season. Now I am just waiting for the champagne!
