It seems when my thoughts turn to Blog they veer towards a religious theme. I think it is Jon the man that does it – he is so admirably unaligned, even when sober.
Mind you Helly raised some slightly unreligious ideas when we watched ZCars in uniform together!!
Abe seems to veer towards an anti Great Satan rant quite easily – beware the American Imperialist !!!
I suppose it is good to have a slant!!
What has really been scratching away at my random thoughts is the reason for the season…..
Gathering together & renewing ties, resting & feasting & joining the community in old rituals… expressing goodwill!
So be friendly & joyful, sing out, smile & wave .. and remember to help with the washing up!!
May your lives be increased with some happiness & silliness, whimsy & folly
P.S. The best defence to the gift of a necktie is to play the “If I was an extra terrestrial student of earthlings, what could this be used for? game…

‘Admirably unaligned’ – you know, I don’t think I could ask for a better compliment. Happy New Year to you!

Personally, the best use for a necktie is as a small, snakes sleeping bag these are particularly useful if you need to carry your snake around in cold weather.

Micky, at home we used to let the cats chase after my Dad’s best silk tie around the room, as we dragged it. There was ofcourse another reason for the destruction of the aforementioned useless item, it had to go, he had worn it too many years, and we were running out of Birthday pressie idea, so ties had to be destroyed to amuse the cats (Okay and us)
