Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas one and all, a little late i know but i have just returned from spending Christmas back home where you can see there was plenty of snow and lots of fun to be had. the food was excellent and so was the drink gifts and laughter was shared by all. my childish ways may have taken us sledging but watching the young ones open there prezzies in excitement was much more fun.
drinks and songs
Well i break up tomorrow for crimbo, well almost and small trip into work monday but its a more of a show ya face order than a do any work thing. so im out for a few bevvies tomorrow night and im sure i will hear this tune more than twice, i have to say i dont mind though as this is another one of those that transports me back to my youth and gets me alittle excited about christmas.
Merry Christmas From Liverpool
Just caught this on the One Show and had to place it on the blog, just because i love the scouse humour and second wouldnt it be great if this was christmas number 1 an not the X factor. im sure my american scouser will be cringing at the sight of it....
light it ip
So tenbellies got the tree out last night and started wrapping prezzies, Christmas for sure is upon us and my job in between shooting afghans on the xbox was to get the lights working. Think i made a good job of it in the end.....
bums on the photocopier
Its that time of year again when the office, workshop or site go on their Christmas do’s, lots of ale and a meal and a few choice words to those that just had it coming. It was ours tonight but for me i chose not to go for various reasons, i find the organisation and being told where to sit for a meal you have to pay for is school like. Eyes that lock onto you as you order a third pint and then the awkward horrible moment when everyone works out to the penny how much they owe. Makes me cringe.
I look forward to a few pints with friends over Christmas some who i work with and others not but im pretty sure it will plenty more enjoyable than the school Christmas meal.
Well and Truly
What a great couple of days, not only has this been one the better Christmas's but maybe the last of its kind. But I'm happy that its finished in this way, loads of food plenty of drink and laughter, friends and family young and old full and festive. Now i sit shattered, exhausted but completely satisfied and while i watch nasty Nick say hes sorry to Dot for the umpteen time, I think its time we make our own Christmas next year, maybe further a field who knows.
Merry Crimbo
Just when i thought it was time to relax, i wake up. Today started off with such promise but from messing with faulty Laptop leads and idiot agency bums id had enough by half twelve and wanted to go back to bed waking up next year. But with a stroke of perseverance we got through the hell that are the days leading up to Christmas and i now sit relaxed from some mega mince pie baking looking forward to the festivities.
So from Monkey to all i wish you a festive holiday and a very Merry Christmas. Lets break out the Vino!!
Its that time of year again
Well its coming and fast upon us, Christmas is within a few weeks and its sure to bring merry times as well as the most awkward stressful situation that it usually brings. I have had a few weeks off from the blog for one reason or another but I'm back now to update you on the life and thoughts of Monkey.
Those who know me and my bog will know that this time of year is never the best time for me, it holds nothing but stress and arguments. Families try to hard to please everyone and in the mean time upset everyone and as long as i can remember now Christmas as always been filled with this. Blahhh Humbug!!
But no the grey haze is lifting and i think monkey is on his way to having a very merry Christmas. Yes, as the years pass since moving away from home i have become less involved with family rucks and dilemmas and choose to be in the company of those that make me happy, and this year I'm feeling especially merry. With work going extremely well , working with people that actually give a dam about the people they work with. It really has made a difference, iv even made some mince pies to take into work.
