Our 2020 Letter To Santa …….

Oh my goodness, here we are again…….

…….. that very special evening when we all get together to write our letter to Santa, to be followed, I am told, by a celebratory and experimental Vodka and 4% alcohol Cherryade On The Rocks cocktail from Darrell.  I have to say I think they are getting a little more potent with each trail, but it’s Christmas and after the year we’ve had, who am I to quibble about the odd hazy head in the morning.

There’s been an awful lot of tangible and palpable concentrated and robust consideration thronging The Towers these past few days, but I think we have all finally come up with exactly what we would like Santa to bring us.

Nigel has decided, after much musing  and cogitation that, after all exciting bridge renovations in the autumn among other things, that it would be rather nice to have his very own chair of a portable type nature from where he could watch the world go by wherever he may happen be,  a most excellent choice.

Darrell, on the other hand, has had a very long felt want for a set of “antique/retro” Cherry B glasses to grace his cocktail cabinet.  To be honest, he’s never actually seen a set in real life, but if anyone can find one, he reckons Santa is the man.

And me?  Well, I am really hoping that with a potential Covid vaccine on the horizon, life may start to get back to normal and perhaps even a little busier, so I would really like a “To Do” list book to help keep me organised……..

Said letter will be cast to the wind a little later on (before cocktails, for obvious reasons), after that I expect we will all get a touch lost in our hopes and dreams for Christmas morning and beyond ……… before, I fear feel, a fuzzy retirement to our beds.

A very fine letter, and great requests, too.

I'm sure Santa will find all of these, as long as you all haven't been, in the word of JtF, "nawty."

No, it isn't Jtf who uses "nawty," is it? Apologies, to all involved!

Three simple requests for Santa - surely after the year we've all had you boyz should def be on the good list and NOT the 'nawty' list......who spells it nawty????? No need for apologies Mr D ........ life is too short to concern yourself about such matters. All the best to every single of the blog followers, should you comment or not or just read it, enjoy it and move on. Hope 2021 is a better year for us all. Take care and stay very safe folks.....
and of course not forgetting mum's monkey herself who makes this ALL possible...the world would be a duller place without this bright shining star of a blog to lighten my days. It's not always huge, 'in your face' things that make your day, quiet things often hold the finest and most rewarding treasures I have found. xxx

Well said, JtF. Mum does a wonderful job, keeping us amused and entertained. Thank you very much, mum!
