Happy Christmas already

I’m off to the BWG Christmas lunch today.

I went to look for pictures of last year’s Christmas lunch to post here. Yeah … you know what? Perhaps I’ll just leave it to your imagination.

This has been getting lots of hits on my stat counter. I don’t quite know what people are hoping to find when they search for how to make a Christmas Grotto… I hope they’re not hoping for 3D constructions. Anyway, I’ve pulled the sign out again for this year; (I think a new one might be in order next year) found the red velvety material and the white snowy fabric; packed a toolbox of equipment which might enable me to cobble together a ‘grotto’ (a festive looking area for Father Christmas to sit to hand out presents…) I’ve brought along some lovely green tinsel too.

THIS YEAR I’m staying sober as a teetotaller. I cannot afford to annihilate my writing brain
cells for a week.

But now you'll need to find a new excuse if those writing brain cells feel like a rest!

Enjoy!

I have our Christmas Do tomorrow night and usually get completely ruined, but this year...well, I'll do my best to stay reasonably sober. One can try!

Okay, I'll do you a deal. You drink. I'll get drunk. You have the hangover. I'll look after your contacts.

No, I don't get the concept of sober either!

You are all very naughty, encouraging me like that! In the end the choice was whipped away from me: my headache started halfway through my first glass. Pah!
