Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

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!

Enjoy yourselves, Chris, as I'm sure you will. Best wishes for Christmas and the New Year. Take care on the slippery slopes!

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.

Re: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

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!!

Why is dyslexia such a hard word to spell?

Re: Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year

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.
