Title: I am ignoring lock down rules
Post by: Derek on December 23, 2020, 10:50:54 AM
I am sorry but this Christmas there is no way that I am not seeing family and friends. You can do what you like, but I will be seeing them.
So, on Christmas Day, the following family will be at the table......
Auntie Stella & Uncle Jameson, with cousin Bailey, Malibu & Smirnoff, & the twins Gin & Tonic,
Scottish cousins Johnny Walker and Glen Moray, & from across the pond, bringing some old fashioned southern comfort with them my old cousins, Jack Daniels and Jim Beam,
My French mate Remy Martin & his friend Pernod, my Spanish mate Jose Cuevro & his cousin Martini, & Bianco, & her daughter tequila my Greek friends Ouzo & Sambuca,
My friends Brandy, Fosters, Snowball & mickey slim,
My Neighbours Captain Morgan & the Grants, the Bells, & the Cointreau's, & the Henneseys,
Uncle Charlie cant make an appearance though.....not good around the kids... although Auntie Stella is on a warning!!
 Merry Christmas all you lovely people, , one and all  .  xxx


I think sometimes a little light heartedness(If there is such a word) is needed

Definitely be light headed with that lot LOL. Have a 'merry' Chrismas and reflect on what we have, not what we don't have. I Know, easier said than done but not impossible.

Very good @Derek so much so that I have borrowed it. Don't forget you will need some Alka Seltzer after that lot  ;)

New challenge this year. Making something for Management purely from stuff laying around the workshop. I came up with a segmented necklace with inset resin 'Gem' on a leather thong (cut from an armchair cover I knew would come in handy one day) and tiny 'Silver' ring (garden wire) in its own textured box. Fingers crossed for Chrizzy Morn.
A safe and merry Chistmas to all tier-stained Woodies everywhere
