Christmas Card Lists
I’m sure President Vladimir Putin has lots of very good reasons for choosing Dmitry Medvedev as his successor, I just can’t help but wonder if one of them is watching President Bush trying to pronounce Mr Medvedev’s name on television.
Compiling our Christmas cards last night was a good moment to reflect on all the changes that have been affecting our friends over the year, most of them positive I’m glad to say. Some tempting a cheesy Yuletide joke like Ana’s new name married to the most excellent Mr. Annadani and others who were loved-up last year are on the single-scene once more and vice versa. So deciding who would get the saucy cards, the cute and the sober was mostly decided on status : Swinging Spinster, New Parents and The Loved-up, I find these sort of chores hard to take seriously. All done by bed-time.
Xmas cards are definitely for the missus to sort out in my house.
seen the invite for tomorrow chezmoi?
Something I once devoted much time to but hopefully never again – I’d just like the whole commercial side to pass me by. Scrooge, eat your heart out.
I shall not be sending any cards this year – however if you would like to send me one I would prfer cut and saucy…
Shame on you City, leaving all the social chores to the wife. You had better hope she never leaves you.
James, sending your friends a few cards is hardly the zenith of consumerist frenzy. Its just slightly nice to remember them.
Mutters, I already sent you a saucy one. No appreciation of my efforts to elevate your Christmas?
