Ain't no joy to the world!

orchidee



Aww, but why no joy to the world, Orchi?

You was only singing about it yesterday

 

Well, it's my own fault

I'm the phantom whisky-water, you see

Or phantom tipple-waterer

You might not guess it's me at your party

Well, not at first

 

Well, I might be disguised as Santa

With a couple of Fidos pulling me sleigh

You'll hear the sound - Pssttt!

It'll be the sound of me syphon

Filled with water, not soda!

 

I've come to put ya fire out

To save ya getting drunk or tipsy

What more could ya want?

I dunno what all the fuss would be about

When ya discover it's me

And show me the door!

 

I wouldn't over-stay me welcome

Just add water to ya tipples

And we'll all have a good time!

 

So there won't be much 'joy'

Not in the sense of 'merry'

'God rest ye merry Gentlemen?'

Oh, I dunno!

 

And Fidos (two of 'em pulling me sleigh)

They won't allow much 'excitement' or 'ardour'

At your parties

They only wants to save you from swooning!

 

What's that you say to me and Fidos

'And a very dull Christmas to you too?!'

Heehee.

      BRIAN HERE ~ Gosh UNCLE STEVE ~ seems like a *FRIDGE too FAR !* With DONALD & BORIS ruling the World we do need a little more censorship ! BUT You & Fido ~ would be that last people I would invite to my Office Party ! Whisky is sacred in Scotland and a SINGLE MALT should have NO additives ~ it is perfect as it comes from the Distillary ~ it is to be savoured and not merely drunk ! With a blend like FAMOUS GROUSE no more than 20% by volume additive is allowed ! Ice - Water - Soda Water - Dry Ginger etc. The penalty for watering RIOJA is a Year in Jail in MADRID (you dont want to go there) ! As for LAPLAND (iN SWEDEN) it looks even worse than WINNEPEG @ minus 20 !
      My advice to you @ Christmas Steve is to send Frumpy Fido to a NICE KENNELS (ยฃ15 a day ?) and let your hair down and wear a Santa Outfit and go to a few Parties without you Cold Water Bottle ~ and (tell it not in GATH) really enjoy yourself & DING DONG MERRILY ON HIGH !

      Blessings & Christmas Joy to You & Frumpy Fido
      Love in the Spirit ~ Brian & Angela ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿงก๐Ÿ’š

        You cannot fool me with your disguises, we have know each other too long. I remember the day when you tried to get my pet dinosaur to eat meat instead of his herbaceous repast, Fido tried to bite you and chased you all the way up the mountains and the pterodactyls took you, flew you out to the sea and dropped you in it - you still have that scar from the plesiosaur that bit you when you fell on it in the sea.
