Santa's secret is out

Our Tumbleweed is not over enthusiastic about Christmas, but has a fine sense of fun. She sent me this video:



Thank you, Tumbleweed.

Uh-oh

View_From_Here sent me this video, the latest in a very good series of ads.



I've been meaning to share this other video with you:



Both ads are being shown on British TV at the moment.

Christmas lights - The sequel

Mrsgunka sent me another creative effort regarding Christmas lights:

Christmas lights

Not everybody gets carried away with the Christmas spirit... Mrsgunka sent me this very touching letter from a contrite husband:


Hi Sweetheart,

I am sorry about getting into an argument about putting up the Christmas lights. I guess that sometimes I feel like you are pushing me too hard when you want something.

I realize that I was wrong and I am apologizing for being such a hard-headed-guy. All I want is for you to be happy and be able to enjoy the holiday season and Christmas. Nothing brightens spirits like Christmas lights!

I took the time to hang the lights for you today.

Again, I am very sorry for the way I acted yesterday.

Be home later.

Love you……

Pirouette

After Billy left for London last week, our cat Pirate was at a loose end, looking for his friend everywhere. When I told Billy about it, he said: "Pirate needs a brother or a sister!"

So the search for a kitten ensued. Today we picked up Pirate's new companion. Here's Pirouette, a feisty, curious and very playful little girl:

Pirate is still going through the WTF stage, but will soon enjoy her company...

[Pirouette was fast asleep on my lap as I typed this post. She's adorable!]
