Morituri te salutant...

"Not if I have anything to do with it", said the lampshade...



As I couldn't get the hilarious 'Welsh Christmas Song' to upload (Google says it is far too disgusting and contains words of a rude and socially unappealing nature), I've been lucky to receive this last resort from a chum in Ireland - and I'm very grateful...

So, in the words of an old boss years ago; "To those I know, have a very happy Christmas, and to those I haven't met before; hello, how are you?"

    Have a great Christmas And a Happy New Year.

    I have seen Leonard Cohen play live a number of times. from the Coffee Houses of Toronto in the early 60's to Woodstock, Strawberry Fair, Isle of Wight.

    My favorite song of his is one of us cannot be wrong. I even slept with the actual suzanne from his song of the same name. She is a hippie from Montreal I met out west almost 40 years ago and still going strong.

    CBC did an interview with her a few years ago. you may find it on youtube.

    I hope you and Mrs S and JRT have a gorgeous christmas with your girls and their men. May 2009 bring you grandchildren, and may only enlightened bankers/planners cross your path. Tight squeezy hugs to you Scrobs.
