We’ll just have to try and get by this Christmas.
It’s that time of year again – Parties, Pud and Christmas crackers. Do-gooders, charity appeals, crap TV and computer scammers.
Things will likely be much worse in this most disastrous year. Unemployment, Brexit and Covid will slow the Christmas cheer.
The virus has killed thousands of people worldwide we are told no-one is immune but chances of survival don’t favour the old.
What about ‘turkey lives matter’ wrote an activist in Daily Mail, my feathered mates are being butchered on an industrial scale.
This is the season for goodwill the politicians keeps reminding us, they then shut the bloody pubs and wonder people make a fuss.
My condolences to Mr. Trump for his fraudulent election claim, I reckon it was global warming and that Greta girl were to blame.
But we’ll enjoy our family bubble hoping for better times ahead but if things don’t improve, well, I’ll probably not get out of bed.
But here’s a family toast, from us over here to family over there then after that, maybe I’ll have a nap in my comfortable easy chair.
Oh! One last thing I really should add, just in case it’s news to you, we’re OUT so bollocks to Merkel, Macron and the bleeding EU.
Cheers! And a very merry Christmas.
