MERRY YULETIDE

Scraping the barrel for uncostly prezzies, BEN TROVATO came up with this.

Here in the Burrow, the festive season will thankfully be more traditional - mince pies galore by Mrs Malaprop, free drinks on the house in the Snug, a carol concert by Dame Barbara's Heavenly Choir of Virtuous Virgins [ guitar backing by Cliff and the Shadows], while Anticant will be giving readings from selected portions of his newly published Memoirs Low Life at the Top.

The Beadle will ensure propriety and due decorum.

Oh yes I could really get into those mince pies of Mrs Malaprop.

I say, readings from /Lush Life At The Low End/ and 'propriety & decorum' seems an odd juxtaposition. No tutus, one supposes? Dulce et decorum pro ambigua and all that.... I'll have a most unislamic bottle (or three!) of stout, please!

I am cooking Beef Wellington for the family.
Don't know whether to do a single or whether to do individual ones.

Any suggestions?

/I/ am boling lutfisk, taters and cabbage...something that reduces the guest list pretty generally!

Please Bodwyn : Do not "boil" those mince pies of Mrs Malapoopers. They are just nice as they are !
I know.

Is Anticant really to "give seedlings from his (most e-specially prepared)potions."
????????????????????????

Jet Harris has already refused to attend.

Just the fish, Zola...and out on the veranda, mind you (says SWMBO!)

No fishy things concerning Mrs Malapoopers - not in the Burrow anyway.
