It's the only time you will ever see my husband dance. My son is always thrilled when I take a picutre. And, Carly is her smiling self - loves the camera. Me, too many teeth showing.
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
Ceol- how could you....?
Incidentally, are you sure that's you in the picture?- and is that a new beard? I suspect you're on the run again to avoid doing the dishes.
There's so much identity fraud, one can't be too careful- and then there are those pesky elves, they'll steal the shirt off your back.
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
It was our impish Welsh relatives that did that to us both. I had a short beard last time I saw them, it is now snowy white and down to my chest in preparation for duties over the holidays, so ~
You'd better not shout, you'd better not cry, you'd better not pout, cause I'm tellin' you why ~ ~ ~ I'm checking the book twice for all you *@*%* just in case you don't deserve that new CD, bow, tipper, whistle or whatever this Christmas... Then I'm off to the bahamas for a long respite. It's hard work whippin' these dwarves into shape. All they ever seem to want to do is dance and sing...
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
Go fix yourself and anyone else present, a nice hot buttered rum P-K... I won't be able to head off to the Bahamas anyway, at least not until after the reindeer molt...
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
No, confusion, it's the Cuban stuff I know. I don't think I've ever had the pleasure of Jamaican rum, just the coffee. So, you get the rum, let me know when you've got your stock, and we'll spring a surprise visit...
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
On the 'beard', I'm actually a disowned and illegitimate brother of our illustrious Ptarmi, alias Dick Glasgow. I'm from the wrong side of the Wash... Check his photo and compare for proof. See what you think...
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
So that's who it reminded me of- I knew it wasn't you. I have you down as ressembling a certain monastic-looking guy in black t-shirt, who only plays the bodhran when I go to the jakes (we're kind of synchronised in that way.) Not the man himself, obviously- just his virtual doppelganger...
Re: Something more to put you in that Christmas spirit?
See, I told you... I'm an outcast because I refused to wear the outfit and work for the North Pole Union, which is a sham anyway, company run. Despite all that, my feet are too wide and a fondness for drink used to get me into trouble continuously. I used to put Barbie's head on GI Joe's body and vice versa ~ and worse... They were glad to be rid of me. They were far too jolly for me anyway. What's joy without a little grump now and then, eh? I mean ~ HO HO HO!!! It always made me wish I had a shotgun full of salt peter... Of course he was jolly, he never really did any of the hands on dirty work of Christmas. We'd slave all year round and only have the one day off as he went flying about all over the place, the fat smelly old git... He's just too multi-national and corrupt, you know he's subsidized by Coke, including the outfit, the silly red suit. While he's up at the big house with all the modern conveniences and proper heating the rest of us were permanently in our long johns/tights ~ brrrrrr!!! ~ and lucky if we split a mince pie between two of us... The reindeer were better fed and cared for...

Oh yeah, they're red and white stripped, my Panto outfit. At least I'm not doing a dame...

Buttered rum sounds good from where I huddle- guess that's stipulated in the Santa clause of your contract?

So that's who it reminded me of- I knew it wasn't you. I have you down as ressembling a certain monastic-looking guy in black t-shirt, who only plays the bodhran when I go to the jakes (we're kind of synchronised in that way.) Not the man himself, obviously- just his virtual doppelganger...
