The word 'treasure' is evocative of so much of the festive period: not only for the twinkling decorations and the feeling of uncovering hidden delights - the rummaging in Christmas stockings, the peeling back of wrapping paper, the lucky sixpence discovered in Christmas pud - but the special time together with loved ones, too. There is much that is priceless about this time of year, despite the commercial aspect to it. All the most lasting memories are built on treasured moments, from receiving or giving a handmade gift to laughter shared with someone you only get to see once a year. I'm sure many of us wish we could bottle that festive spirit to see us through more mundane days in March or October, when everything's grey and devoid of magic. Well, do you know what? We can.
