Today is the feast of St Nicholas. Did you know that the tradition of stockings comes from St Nicholas who threw gold through an open window in his town and it is thought that some fell in the socks of a child.🧦Do you have any family traditions to mark this day? https://t.co/GJYPbBTrAS

Saint Nicholas stopped by our house sometimes last night. In past times he used to bring sticks to naughty kids and treats to nice kids WHO cleaned their boots the night before. In time, he learned to bring both, and boots cleaning is less and less enforced. https://t.co/fXcgrbFNMO

An exchange of Saints - last night I took a bag of freshly baked St Lucia buns to a neighbour (the neighbour with the cats who sleep on my sofa). As a thank you she gave me some biscuits she’d baked for St Nicholas (his day is today). Accidentally we invented a new tradition.

It's the Feast of St Nicholas, to whom two of the oldest churches in Vilnius (and Lithuania) are dedicated: one RC and one Orthodox. The Orthodox church was founded c.1340 and houses the incorrupt bodies of the Vilnius martyrs, killed on the orders of Grand Duke Algirdas in 1347 https://t.co/iMFjTcaSi5

Many ideas about Santa Claus come from stories of the real-life bishop St Nicholas who, according to legend, helped a family in need by dropping coins down their chimney. We pray that we might imitate St Nicholas' generosity, courage and care for the poor. #SantaClaus #Generosity https://t.co/qTo5dVjVg9

Today is the feast of St Nicholas, patron of sailors and children. In glass by Martin Travers, 1932 at Denston, Suffolk he calms a storm and brings back to life three murdered boys in a barrel. Their killer, the landlord, is aghast. 1/3 Denston: https://t.co/dBgpal1kmN https://t.co/SnaxcKCxYm
