Bliadhna Mhath Ùr

Last year I was Twisting in My Sobriety.

This year..... well I have some tough decisions to make.

Those working tonight - stay safe.

Those not, and all the other Toy Town™ Teamsters, have a blast. I'm gonna!

All the best to one and all for 2010.

Slàinte Mhath!

The Season of Ill Will

In reference to my last post;

Was I right or was I wrong?

Let's just say my overtime claim forms were piling up.

Thank the Lord that I am off over Mahogany or otherwise Toy Town™ Constabulary would be bankrupt what with my Jonah stylee luck!

Boxing Day

Christmas is over for another year and it's early turn for me in the area of Toy Town™ that is euphemistically referred to as 'Domesticville'.

Two things struck me (sic) about policing 'Boxing Day':

Firstly, the name derives from the tradition of giving seasonal gifts, on the day after Christmas, to less wealthy people and social inferiors.

Secondly, the portentous nature of the naming of the day.

Here's a tip for quarrelsome significant others; try the latter and in the spirit of giving I can offer you an en-suite room with no view, because knowing my customer base, I have a feeling I'm going to be a very generous innkeeper.

Save a Prayer

Season's Greetings one and all.

I ask you to save a prayer today for this remarkable lady.

While you are at it, spare a thought for my colleagues who are out at the coalface today. Stay safe.

Finally, when you are surrounded by the warmth of your family and friends today, and those of you who might consider saying Grace, cast your minds towards those who are far away on the real front line fighting for us.

.... and yes, cast a thought on what this day is really about celebrating.
