Why did most people stop celebrating Christmas in January?
Many religious beliefs are that Jesus was born on Christmas (but scientists have since proved by the plant life from that era that it was probably Spring, Jesus was born in.) It is a religious celebration which has been taken over by modern beliefs of Santa Claus. Canadians usually find it bad luck to take their Xmas tree down until the New Year comes in. Marcy

Who is the funds remittance officer of Barclay's bank of London plc?
There is no such officer. What you are receiving is a scam email, most likely from Africa.
If the email tells you there is a large sum of money available to you from a bank, money transfer company (Western Union/Money Gram) or quasi-governmental agency (IMF/UN/World Bank), delete such emails.
The whole purpose is to get you to send money to them by wire transfer. You will be out of your cash and there is no fund coming to you from anywhere.
Do not be scammed.
