Merry Christmas to members past and present (and get well soon Marc.l!)

I hope you all enjoy the festivities and appreciate those that are important to you.

As a Christian, let me say I take no offence whatsoever at Charles' post. It made me smile. Thank you.

As an atheist I take no offence to the winter solstice being hijacked by Christians.

Have a great one!!!

Indeed, as the 25th draws closer, a very happy Christmas to all members, their families and friends.

Seasons greetings from me too. Hope everyone enjoys a safe and happy Christmas.

As I work in food retail, Christmas is not the joyous occasion that some enjoy, its bloody hard work, but even so hope everyone has a good one, just don't get grumpy when you go food shopping and the stores are packed!!!

Pogues – Fairytale Of New York


Songwriters: FINER, JEREMY MAX / MACGOWAN, SHANE PATRICK LYSAGHT


It was christmas eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me: won't see another one
And then they sang a song
The rare old mountain dew
I turned my face away and dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I´ve got a feeling
This year´s for me and you
So happy christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
Where all our dreams come true.

They got cars big as bars
They got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It´s no place for the old
When you first took my hand on a cold christmas eve
You promised me broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome you were pretty
Queen of new york city when the band finished playing they yelled out for more
Sinatra was swinging all the drunks they were singing
We kissed on a corner
Then danced through the night.

And the boys from the NYPD choir were singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out for christmas day.

You´re a bum you´re a punk
You´re an old slut on junk
Lying there almost dead on a drip in that bed
You scumbag you maggot
You cheap lousy faggot
Happy christmas your **** I pray god it´s our last.

And the boys of the NYPD choir's still singing Galway Bay
And the bells were ringing out
For christmas day.

I could have been someone
Well so could anyone
You took my dreams from me
When I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can´t make it out alone
I´ve built my dreams around you

And the boys of the NYPD choir's still singing Galway Bay
And the bells are ringing out
For christmas day.
