Best wishes to kbgs.com and all who sail in her. Shortly leaving for Switzerland to get my annual dose of snow, ice and cold - it's wonderful after 350 days of tropical weather!
Meery Christmas and Happy New Year to all.
Chris , I was hoping to come to Singapore again before I retire end March, but now its not necessary. It was a delight to meet you and your family on three or four occasions. Anyway I'll still be around on the forum.
"Meery Christmas" - I see Brian's been at the port early this year, or was it a typo?
Merry Christmas to you too Chris, and may I add my thanks to the others. Your description of moving from the heat to chilly climes when you go to Switzerland has a certain resonance with the way the weather has changed in Yorkshire over the past few weeks.
And just a little 'festive' joke in case it 'goes quiet in the Snug'! Have you heard the one about the overweight,alchoholic cross-dresser who loved to eat, drink and be 'Mary'? Or,on similar lines; Have you heard about the dislexic,agnostic insomniac who would lie awake all night wondering if there really was a Dog? Merry Christmas!!
Could it be all part of a plot by teachers of reading to give to their essential work a measure of respect that is withheld by those who think it's as easy as "Janet and John", "Nip and Fluff" and "Cumjecum"?
Does the terrorist organisation of the 50's,still exist I wonder? It put the fear of eternal damnation into every schoolboy's heart.I refer, of course to Al Gebra.
