Oooh, RonnieMama I'm sure you don't mean that. Come on break out the mistletoe and give him a smacker.

Edited, because I made an innocent reference to the noise a turkey is traditionally supposed to make and it looked like a stage direction in one of those films you see advertised in the Daily Express.

Honestly you have to be so careful.

I have just returned from Twisted Christmas at the Barbican - Jarvis Cocker is my king of Christmas (as delicious now as the day I fell in love with him all those years since). He is the bread sauce to my stuffing, the orange zest to my cranberry sauce, the partridge to my pear tree, the frankincense to my myrrh, the morecambe to my wise, the cool to my yule.

I'm now going to attempt to download the weird christmas carol that only my school and kings college cambridge seemed to sing - anyone else sing Three Kings From Persian Lands Afar? It's super-good. Check it: Three beautiful kings (if at 2:08 a tear doesn't come to your eye then you're dead inside and get thee to the bar humbug post)

The big day's here at last. My heart is overflowing with joy and goodwill.

It's that time of year again, the place is a little dusty but nothing a wipe down with a damp rag won't cure.

I'll soon have a nice fire in the grate and 'ere long the kettle will be singing on the hob all the better to prepare hot toddies.

And the big surprise is the tree, Dymphna and Georgette planted it and have tended it all year round and there it is in the corner just crying out to be trimmed.

In fact anyone coming in today will be made to join in the trimming. Go on, you know you want to.

Come one come all for the best month of the year, the only rule is NO GLOOMY GUSSES.

Is Bar Humbug coming back too, Hoochiecoochie?

[HonaloochieB]

Sorry Moos, but I forgot about rule number two, we do not speak of the 'other place' in here.

I find it harshes my buzz.

[Moos]

And what is the first rule of Christmas Club?

[HonaloochieB]

Pay out is on the 5th December and no running off with the boodle?

On reflection this looks a little less than inclusive.

Look if your name is Augustine and you're feeling a bit depressed don't take the rule as meaning you're not welcome in the Mitzvah.

Come on down it's free egg nog and tree trimming day today, all day.

If that doesn't cheer you up nothing will.

Now Quids, I can tell you don't mean that to sting, you're just on the edge of busting out laughing you rogue.

Now here's a large egg nog and a handful of tinsel, now get trimming young feller-me-lad

[HonaloochieB]

I felt a certain chilly tingle today, could it be that snow's on its way?

I hope so, walking in a winter wonderland is, well, just so me at this time of year.

No two flakes are alike, you know.

[HonaloochieB]

Come on, you lot, everyone's beautiful at this time of year!!!!!!!!!!

I will cheek-kiss all, and you shall each have a Snowball.

And what with Wizzard on in the background...
