Talking of Christmas parties - "Oh, no there wasn't! Oh yes there was!" - I've just been invited to this year's RNLI bash at their HQ.
The last one I went to was absolutely fantastic.
They certainly know how to push the boat out...
 
"I am one of the three wise men", announced little Harry at the school nativity play, "and I have travelled many miles to be here. I have brought you a gift."
Harry proudly lifted what appeared to be a book wrapped in gold foil.
"Gold. I have brought you gold"
Little Johnny then took centre stage, wiping his nose on his sleeve, and taking his cue from one of the teachers, stage left.
"And I have brung.....I 'ave bru......"
"Brought, Johnny. It's brought" whispered the teacher.
"I 'ave brought you mur....mhuhrm.....uhm...."
"Myrrh, John. Like murder, but without the end...." he was prompted.
"MUR!" shouted the boy.
A slight pause followed whilst Mary picked up the doll Jesus who had face-planted next to the cardboard crib. Joseph had been cradling it, but then he'd developed an itchy bottom which just had to be scratched, leading to Jesus slipping out of the chequered tea towel and gravity taking over...
The audience giggled, as parent audiences do when watching their child make complete fools of themselves.
Up stepped Jamie, who'd had his duck well and truly knocked off when he'd been relegated to Wise Man #3 instead of the main role of Joseph.
He'd seethed and moaned, grumbled and frowned, and been quite obnoxious since the decision. It was time to make his mark.
"And Frank", he announced loudily, "Frank's sent this...."
 
Saw an advert yesterday, a top of the range B&O radio - for only a quid!
One pound!
I rechecked all the info, and yes - it was the very top model! Fantastic bargain!
It was listed under the 'repair needed' section, though - apparently the volume control is stuck at number 10.
I just couldn't turn it down.....
