I'm dreaming of a white christmas

Lovely photo of Barum the winter wonderland

I'm dreaming of a white christmas,
just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
to hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white christmas,
just like the ones I used to know
Where the treetops glisten and children listen
to hear sleigh bells in the snow

I'm dreaming of a white christmas,
with every christmas card I write
May your days be merry and bright,
and may all your christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white christmas,
just like the ones I used to know
May your days be merry and bright,
and may all your christmases be white

I'm dreaming of a white christmas,

May your days be merry and bright,
and may all your christmases be white

May your days be merry and bright,
and may all your christmases be white

Well and truly snowed in down here at Ashford Strand. I can't get up the lane. I suppose if needs be I could get the canoe out and paddle up river to Lidl at Seven Bretheren Bank.

Lidl very convenient should you ever have

 

to row in

 to do your groceries

Mind you it would be a bit cold. Lucky I paid for me dongle the other day totherwise I wouldn't have the internet. So I am staying in most likely with a couple of boxes of Co-Op dark chocolate brandy liqueurs, singing along to carols after having watched Kara Tointon on BBC Iplayer again and once more for posterity. What a remarkable breath of fresh air she is for British light entertainment. I have a cracking fire going with me xmas driftwood yule logs which aren't really logs put planks that come from an old boat I broke up last week. It's been bobbing about on the foreshore for months now so I claimed wreckers rights on the bugger and cut him up. I should have contacted the Receiver of Wrecks or the Crown Estate. I know I put me hands up but all that red tape didn't seem worth it and of course I would then have the dubious honour of being the first person in my family to do so, plus it is now serving a higher purpose keeping me warm and drying out me xmas trousers and toe-tectors.
