Merry Christmas to you too, Cenwulf, and to everyone else too!

I always liked the rest of that carol, which no-one sings nowadays because it's just so wonderfully insistent and demanding:
"Now bring us some figgy pudding..." "For we all like figgy pudding..." "And we won't go until we've got some..."
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

Merry Christmas Everyone


I hope to be away, but the guilt trip I'm on at the moment I may just stay here with whoever is on the site and eat the 24 sticky toffee puds, 2 frozen chocolate mousse and 3 pate I've just made as comfort food, or I could go to work :( :(

I dunno - I never had figgy pudding but it doesn't sound very appetising. I'd much rather sing for the "cup of good cheer" (and these verses were sung at my son's primary school service too!)
