What ARE you talking about, RJ? :P

"Sure we can, Doublemm can manage that many messages before pizza... and if the topic *is* pizza, so much the better. ;)"

After my pizza breakfast yeasterday I had a pizza for lunch :| If you think I'm joking, think again, and if you know I'm being serious you know me too well.

No pizza today though. I've been at work ALL day and barely had any food.

Was it the same Hawaiian pizza? Or did you order fresh?
We can easily pass the post marker, but only if we aren't assessed for quality. :D
Mulled wine anyone?

I never consider quality when making my posts, so that shouldn't be a problem.

I didn't order fresh - the box from the night before was closer than the phone so...

OK RJ, you have my attention :)

So tell us RJ, what did you win? *puzzled as she can't see a new shiny on RJ's profile*

And in case I get caught up in trying to get everything sorted in the next few days time... Merry Christmas Llamas and Pirates!

It could be a Boy Scout badge - 'Get your Mum to decorate your Christmas tree' or 'How to talk in unintelligable language'.

Marry Christmas

The Legend of the Christmas Tree Fairy

I'll tell you an old Christmas story,
As we sit round the log fire at night
Why each Christmas Tree has a fairy on top
And why Santa's beard is so white.

It happened one winter in England,
On a dark Christmas Eve long ago:
There was Santa out doing his rounds,
And playing on t' sledge in t' snow.

He were taking all t' presents to t' houses
And then, when that first job were done,
He went round once again wi' his fairies,
Putting Christmas Trees in every one.

Now just when he thought he might finish,
And last house were almost in sight,
He went to fetch more trees off toboggan.
And he found he were just four trees light.

This discovery quite upset Santa,
So he gave to his reindeer a shout (whoa up!)
And he sent for his Christmas Tree fairy,
To chastise her for leaving them out.

'Eeee by gum, tha's a daft little fairy,
Tha's as daft as a fairy could be,
When tha packed up t' sledge this evening,
Tha must'uv missed off some of t' trees.'

"Oh Bugger" replied little fairy
Which were really quite un-fairy-like
"I'll have to go back to t' factory
And with that she jumped on her bike.

"Hold on just a minute" cried Santa
"There's a way that won't let you forget
Fetch one tree for each of your fingers
On t' right hand, you'll get it right yet".

Then off like a shot went our fairy,
Much faster than light from the sun,
Cos Einstein hadn't yet been invented
So she wasn't to know it weren't done.

Now if you could have watched little fairy
There were trouble to come you could tell,
For when she was counting her fingers,
She'd counted her thumb in as well.

Now Santa, he'd waited for hours
'Till his patience were running quite dry
'Till at last he saw t' fairy pedalling
For all she were worth through t' sky.

But then as the fairy got nearer,
Santa's anger it grew more and more
He could see from the load she was bearing
That she'd fetched him five trees and not four.

Then Santa got redder and redder
Started roaring with all of his might
Till the glow from his nose outshone Rudolf
And his beard it began to turn white.

"Why tha's stupid" he yelled at the fairy
"Tha's four times as thick as I'd thought.
Now go and put trees in last houses
And as soon as tha's finished: - report!"

So straightway off went our fairy
And as soon as she'd finished last place
She brought fifth tree back to Santa,
And waved it in front of his face.

"Whatever shall I do with this one?"
Our innocent fairy enquired,
So Santa he upped and he told her
'Cause by now he were feeling right tired.

The fairy she looked up at Santa
And her face it turned a mite red
But then, like the good little fairy she was,
She went and she did as he said,

So now at the end of my story
You'll see why to this very night,
Each Christmas Tree has a fairy on top
And old Santa's beard is quite white.



The moral if ever you want one
Is simply, when doing your sums.
If you really must count on your fingers
Don't forget to remember your thumbs!

Snow! ACTUAL snow! We've been deprived when all other areas of the UK are seemingly covered in the stuff and now we have it. :D

Well it's white here now... and you'd think my daughter would be pleased but... oh no, disaster! The snow's hard because it's made up of hail (I heard it last night!).

Right o, off to the shops I go... I have a list to get including that alcohol stuff...

You're welcome, Mike. :)

There's a prize for anyone who can work out how many different images I used to create that avatar... spot the joins! (Though I do hope you can't :p)

Hmm, I should know! That's my avatar!:) Is it five, flopsy?

If it's immaculately white where you are right now, ours is all green and brown and all humidity for that matter.:)
