How can we have Christmas at our house?
The rooms look like there was a riot
the table’s strewn over with gas bills
and the reindeer are all on a diet.
.
How can we have Christmas at our house?
The tree is hung over and wonky
our turkey ran off with the tinsel
and we never did order the donkey.
.
How can we have Christmas at our house?
It’s too cold to put out the fire
so Santa will struggle to reach us
and so will the heavenly choir.
.
How can we have Christmas at our house?
but wait, well then maybe we can
there’s a bucket of love up our chimney
and hugs in the fridge and the pan.
.
There’s sweet figgy pudding and music
our voices are merry and bright
we’ll hide nuts in a massive red stocking
and drink ginger wine late at night.
.
So let’s all have Christmas at our house
we’ll cook up a magical banquet
and after the games and the laughter
we’ll cuddle up under our blanket.
.
We all know the New Year is waiting
and we have to work hard and dig deep
but beautiful friendships will give us
the gift of this Christmas to keep.
beautiful friendships indeed 🙂

I’m on my way. should be there about 5:00.
I like the image of the hungover Christmas tree
Marvellous! I’ll put the kettle on. Off to cook mince pies now x
Kettle schmettle. get the corkscrew out. Not ginger wine though, it gives me heartburn. I’ve got a couple of bottles of Lithuanian Sauternes that the bloke in the garage highly recommended
sounding better all the time. What music shall we play?
