The food here is dreadful on Fridays. It's rarely up to much the rest of the week either but Fridays take the prize.

Alternative 12 days of Christmas

(Sung to the tune "On the first day of Christmas")

On the first day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
some socks that reached over my knee.

On the second day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the third day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the fourth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the fifth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the sixth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the seventh day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the eighth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eight statements a-shrinking
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the ninth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Nine plastics melting,
Eight statements a-shrinking
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the tenth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Ten bags a-bursting,
Nine plastics melting,
Eight statements a-shrinking
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the eleventh day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Eleven limits leaping,
Ten bags a-bursting,
Nine plastics melting,
Eight statements a-shrinking
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

On the twelfth day of Christmas,
my true love sent to me
Twelve migraines humming,
Eleven limits leaping,
Ten bags a-bursting,
Nine plastics melting,
Eight statements a-shrinking
Seven debts a-swimming,
Six bills a-laying,
Five smelly things,
Four empty wallets,
Three pairs of cufflinks,
Two useless ties,
And some socks that reached over my knee.

Roll on Xmas!

Off Topic: The Perfect Man and the Perfect Woman

Once upon a time, a perfect man and a perfect woman met. After a perfect courtship, they had a perfect wedding. Their life together was, of course, perfect.

One snowy, stormy Christmas Eve, this perfect couple was driving their perfect car (a Grand Caravan) along a winding road, when they noticed someone at the side of the road in distress. Being the perfect couple, they stopped to help.

There stood Santa Claus with a huge bundle of toys. Not wanting to disappoint any children on the eve of Christmas, the perfect couple loaded Santa and his toys into their vehicle. Soon they were driving along delivering the toys.

Unfortunately, the driving conditions deteriorated and the perfect couple and Santa Claus had an accident. Only one of them survived the accident.

Who was the survivor? (Scroll down for the answer.)






















The perfect woman survived. She's the only one who really existed in the first place. Everyone knows there is no Santa Claus and there is no such thing as a perfect man.

Women stop reading here, that is the end of the joke.

Men keep scrolling****.






















So, if there is no perfect man and no Santa Claus, the perfect woman must have been driving. This explains why there was a car accident.

By the way, if you're a woman and you're reading this, this illustrates another point: women never listen. Roll on Xmas!

Hello ello what ave we ere??

[Spunkymonkey]

We have virtually no snow right now but Bangor (about 15 miles away as the snow flies) has about 8 inches. How unfair is that????

On a brighter side, I got my latest OU course result yesterday and have just accepted my BSc (Hons). If I start using post-nominals, someone please shoot me

Yours,

Spunkymonkey, BSC (Hons)

Today I took delivery of 10 ties which I will use at an upcoming trade show. Fine you think except for the Superman logo on them. Why would M+S send me 10 Superman ties? They were advertised as Blue and plain, something seems to have gone wrong. Not sure whether to just laugh or get really miffed!
