No, I'm not early, the twelve days of Yule start on the 21st December, and finish on midnight of the first day of the new year.
So have a good one guys and gals.
PS Yeah, I know it should start on the solstice, and isn't on the 21st anymore, but what the heck. The gods may know when the solstice is, but I can't get to Stonehenge to check it, so today's as good as any.

Here's to cheating, stealing, fighting, and drinking:
If you cheat, may you cheat death.
If you steal, may you steal another person's heart.
If you fight, may you fight for a brother or sister--
And if you drink, may you drink with me!
