A VEGETARIAN CHRISTMAS

 

Do you want to celebrate?

A vegetarian Christmas

Then here you are

Have a freshly strained

Vegetable every day

With the advent colander

THE COUNCIL CHRISTMAS TREE

 

The council Christmas tree is dressed

And the lights were switched on in June

But don’t get yourself unduly distressed

With energy saving lights it’s not too soon

Because you must switch them on remember

So they are warmed up by December

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – THE YEAR WITHOUT A SANTA CLAUS (1974)

 

The Year Without a Santa Claus is a classic children’s animation about a Santa Claus who is thoroughly disgruntled with Christmas and opts to take a year off from delivering presents.

However Mrs. Santa and elves Jangle Bells and Jingle Bells have other ideas when Jingle and Jangle decide to go out to find children to convince Santa that the Christmas spirit is still important to everybody else.

But they have to get past Heat Miser and Snow Miser, first, before they land in Southtown, USA, where it never snows for Christmas, where they find Ignatius Thistlewhite who is desperate for it to snow, but the Miser Brothers won't agree to let it snow in Southtown but Mrs. Santa knows their mom, Mother Nature and so the crisis is averted.

This endearing Rankin-Bass masterpiece is a wonderful example of stop motion animation with aided by the vocal talents of Shirley Booth (Mrs. Santa), Mickey Rooney (Santa Claus), Dick Shawn (Snow Miser), George S. Irving (Heat Miser), Bob McFadden (Jingle Bells), Bradley Bolke (Jangle Bells), Ron Marshall (Mr. Thistlewhite), Colin Duffy (Ignatius Thistlewhite), Christine Winter (Blue Christmas Girl) and Rhoda Mann (Mother Nature).

CHRISTMAS DAY IN THE WORKHOUSE # 2

 

It’s Christmas day in the workhouse

In a typical parish establishment

Full of the inebriated and the loose

She we should have a Christmas goose

TO ALL OF YOU, FROM ALL OF US

 

I have to say

Without ado

Its time to say

To all of you

From all of us

Merry Christmas

PERSISTENT AND DISRUPTIVE WINDS

Persistent and disruptive winds,

There seems to be no doubts,

Are predicted after Christmas

And it will probably be the Sprouts 

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – CHRISTMAS WEDDING (2006)

 

Emily and Ben (Sarah Paulson and Eric Mabius) first met on Christmas day and almost two years later they plan to marry on Christmas Day.

However a spanner is thrown in the works when real-estate developer Emily is required to attend to something for work, and has to leave the wedding plans up to Ben.

As problems arise when procrastinator Ben tries to deal with bridesmaids dresses and dyed shoes, while perfectionist Emily is out of her mind with worry that her perfect day will be anything but. However, when a snow storm threatens to strand Emily at work she embarks on a wild cross-country odyssey to get home in time for her big day and on her sojourn she realizes that the only thing that matters is making it home to be with Ben and their Christmas wedding.

Enjoy this brilliant laugh out loud Romantic Christmas Comedy which is a kind of “Plane Trains & Automobiles” does Christmas, well worth a watch Sarah Paulson never disappoints.
