1st December 2015 Christmas is coming ......


 

Christmas is Coming 
Christmas is coming,
The geese are getting fat,
Please put a penny
In the old man's hat.
If you haven't got a penny,
A ha'penny will do,
If you haven't got a ha'penny,
Then God bless you.

Traditional 



Getting in the Christmas mood!  .....sorting out my Christmas Reading list......Christmas Watching list....Christmas Baking list..... Christmas making list..... and Christmas listening list.....

No alcohol was involved in the production of this post ....impetus and mood are courtesy booking tickets to visit family in the UK after a gap of several years ... I rather think I may be in an Excellent mood :o)

  1. Same here with the sorting out of books to read, and the Christmas TV trailers are looking quite enticing.

    How exciting to be coming to the UK after several years. Your family here will be thrilled I'm sure.

from an old gravestone

If you hold your nose to the Grindstone
and you leave it there long enough,
Then soon you'll say
there's no such things
as brooks that babble
and birds that sing,
these three will all your world compose,
just you, the stone and your poor old nose.

(from memory so may not be word perfect)
