Well, if you need more money you can put in for extra hours down Rotterdam docks. Them oil tankers wont kick start themselves.

My! my, what a bunch of grumpies we all are today.......lets see if we can change the mood and start off the new year by reminding you that Christmas will be back soon and Asda are already selling Christmas wrapping paper. So once more I ask you to join me in a short rendition of ou favourite Christmas Carol....'All together now.....

[Dashing through the snow
In a one horse open sleigh
O'er the fields we go
Laughing all the way
Bells on bob tails ring
Making spirits bright
What fun it is to laugh and sing
A sleighing song tonight

Oh, jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh
Jingle bells, jingle bells
Jingle all the way
Oh, what fun it is to ride
In a one horse open sleigh


Isn't that better, don't we all feel uplifted and full of joy now?

My old "Butch" Stafford dog was quietly licking his balls wistfully watched  by my friend Alf.

"I wish I could do that" he said.

"You can try, but he might bite you." I said.

HAPPY NEW YEAR to all our READERS !
