Dan I really did laugh out loud at this

Jayney are you going to work on 25 December then?

Happy Humbug evrybody!

The Bah Humbug Song
Chipmunks roasting on an open fire
Jack Frost nipping at the gin
Yuletide Muzak drives shoppers insane
as people hustle in the din

All your kith and kin at once
can be a frightening thought
Well, if they're anything like mine
Tiny tots wonder what Santa brought
No matter what they got, they whine

We know that New Year's is on it's way
With all those charge bills from December left to pay
And each department store is going to cheer
'Cause we'll be desperate again late next year

And so I'm offering a prayer here
to stores from Macy's to Walgreen's
When you put up those dumb decorations next year,
can't you wait 'til after after Halloween?


Happy valentines day

Ste.

Na man, I am looking forward to meeting up with the family and spending a few days with them.

I got a bit non plussed with christmas over the last few years but heard summat on the radio where the presenter said the same to the lapland father christmas. His reply was 'well son, Christmas isn't about you'
Kinda made sense to me so this year been more cheery about it and apart from the commercial aspect of it, it's been nice.

Love it!

From the first Coke advert with Santa driving his truck. Love the cheesy old Xmas records. Love the champagne on Xmas Eve night, the Bacardi the gets opened on Xmas morning, the wine with lunch, the whisky for the Queen's speech, the sherry at tea time & the JD night cap. Love the lager before going to the match on Boxing Day, the pint at half time, the pint at the post match post mortum.

Not sure I enjoy the few days in Gazza's company at the Priory Clinic

+more.

Utter cobblers the lot of it.

Maybe for some people it`s having children that makes Christmas such a special time of year?

A young childs excitement around Christmas time is so infectious... their belief in Santa Claus, your attendance at their nativity plays at which point you burst into tears of pride at seeing your child parading around wearing a tea towel on his head! sprinkling talcum powder up the stairs then putting footprints in it to convince them that yes, Santa Claus really did walk up our stairs. Being woken at 5am with "has he been yet", trying to persauade them to go back to bed for an hour then giving in as they`re so excited.

My son might be grown up now but I`m so grateful to have those happy memories of his childhood and that`s what makes me look forward to xmas each year as it`s a time of remembering and it`s those happy memories that keep the tradition of christmas well and truly alive for me year after year.
