I know that only a minority of DFers are British and not all are Christian, but I hope that we all, on DF, can enter into the spirit of Christmas. Warm thoughts from BM to each and everyone one of you.
I left work early tonight and drove up the M6 at warp factor 5 in time to catch the shops for those last minute purchases. Miss Beth had announced that her BF's parents had bought her perfume which obliged me to return the favour. 'Great' thinks BM, 'what do you get for a randy 15yr old?' BM settled for a belt from River island. After making other vital purchases, which included clothes for BM, I made a visit to 'my M&S' as the adverts remind me. A pork pie and some duck pate later BM makes her way back to the Beemer. Luckily it remained in one piece after being parked in a public car park in Carlisle for more than one hour.
BM made her way home dreaming of a fish supper.... The snow began to fall...Chris Rea was on the radio
Driving Home For Christmas
And it's been so long
But I will be there
I sing this song
To pass the time away
Driving in my car
Driving home for Christmas
It's gonna take some time
But I'll get there
Top to toe in tail-lights
Oh, I got red lights on the run
But soon there'll be a freeway
Get my feet on holy ground
OMG BM felt Christmassy! She looked around whilst stopped at the lights! It could have been Victorian Times with people linked together, wrapped up and braving the weather, if not for the fake Burberry baseball caps worn back to front!
How I love my green and pleasant land at this time of year! Why I could easily joined the WI and sang Jerusalem at the top of my voice! Why do the WI have Jerusalem as their anthem?
Anyhows, to all DFers, whatever your persuasion, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays! May I wish every each and every one of you, the very best over this very special time. BM loves you all, including her very special friend DDS
