I put some Christmas decorations up in my living room today
and uncovered a mystery. The red and green tinsel I’ve been using for years
wasn’t in the decorations box, so I searched high and low – every cupboard,
every box – disparu. Where is it? Don’t know. So I had to use gold and silver
tinsel instead.
The decorations I use were my mother’s that I took from her
house after she died. And do you know what I found today? Two ornaments that
used to hang on the Christmas tree when I was a little boy. That was nice.
I also bought three of my Christmas treats on Wednesday – a litre
bottle of port, a box of mince pies and a vegetarian bake for Christmas dinner.
Only the cigars to go. My neighbour says she’s baking me a Christmas cake,
which is why I haven’t had a moan yet about her dogs barking incessantly. I’ll
leave that until I’ve eaten the cake.
Only kidding.
Oh, and I found the lyrics to Raglan Road today. They weren't as bad as I thought they were. In fact, they touched a certain chord with which my own heart strings are familiar. Would anybody like me to post them?
