Bah Humbug. It's December again - only 6 days to Christmas!

Bah Humbug, it's 19th December.

Last day of the school term and only 6 days until Christmas. How can 19 days have just disappeared like that?

Good job I have been organised and written a check list.

Turkey - ordered - tick ✓

Ridiculous amounts of mince pies, stollen, mini Christmas pudding (as no one ever eats it apart from me!), chocolate biscuits - purchased, in the fridge - tick ✓

Vegetables - list compiled, and it does not include Brussels sprouts! - tick  ✓

Table cloth, napkins and decoration for the table - a semi-sort of tick ✓

Christmas gifts wrapped - tick - apart from the stray ones that suddenly turned up last night ✓

Signs and directions for Santa for leaving gifts - tick ✓

(Although it looks like the penguin is explaining that cook books with roasted birds on the front are not such a great idea)

Ah, last night, now I remember - we had Carol singers complete with Santa hats.

In all the years I have lived in Singapore this is only the third time anyone has visited me and how could we refuse when they were collecting for building a school in Kerala, India.

As my eldest son said as they finished, 'I wish the world was filled with more people like you.'

And they sang the bossy Christmas Carol!

We wish you a Merry Christmas

We wish you a Merry Christmas
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

So, bring us some figgy pudding, So, bring us some figgy pudding

So, bring us some figgy pudding and bring it right here.

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

And we won't go until we've got some, 

And we won't go until we've got some, 

And we won't go until we've got some, so bring some out here.

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

Glad tidings we bring for you and your kin,

We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Maybe there are other people out there who like Christmas pudding like me?
