PREMIER INN ADVENT CALENDAR

 

I got an Advent Calendar this year

From the Hotel chain “Premier Inn”

With a chocolate behind every window

But of course, you couldn’t open them

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – MIRACLE OF THE HEART

 

Medical resident Nathan Andrews (Neil Patrick Harris), goes back home to his small town after he loses a teenager on the operating table.

He joins his dad Jack (Hugh Thompson) and his mechanic's business and becomes a basketball coach to some young people, which is where he meets Charlie Bennett (Angus T. Jones) and Meghan Sullivan (Rebecca Gayheart).

Nathan falls for Meghan but she thinks he’s a mechanic and he neglects to tell her that he’s a surgeon but then Charlie is taken ill, the truth comes out.

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 28

 

Twas the night before Christmas

And all thru the Tower

Not a creature was stirring

As they neared the midnight hour

And the reason for that was

A black out so they had no power

ARE YOU WEARING IT THE RIGHT WAY?

 

Are you wearing it the right way?

I heard the pretty girl say

Should it be tied like so?

For kissing under the mistletoe

Am I showing my naïveté?

In the most embarrassing way

It’s just that I kind of felt

It shouldn’t be tied on your belt

MICROSOFT ADVENT CALENDAR

 

I got a Microsoft Advent Calendar

This year, but if you should open

Too many Windows, They will,

For no apparent reason all close again

THE BEST CHRISTMAS MOVIES EVER – A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1999)

 

Patrick Stewart stars as miser Ebenezer Scrooge in this quality retelling of Charles Dickens' “A Christmas Carol”.

The classic tale in which he is taught the true meaning of Christmas by three Spirits who visit him, revealing to him the truth about his own miserable existence, what opportunities he wasted in his youth, his current catalogue of cruelties, and the dire fate that awaits him if he does not change his ways.

Scrooge is faced with his own story of growing bitterness and meanness, and must decide what his own future will hold, death or redemption.

The Spirits are played by Joel Grey (Past), Desmond Barrit (Present) and Tim Potter (Future)

The other key characters and portrayed by Bernard Lloyd (Marley), Laura Fraser (Belle), Richard E. Grant and Saskia Reeves (The Cratchit’s), Ben Tibber (Tiny Tim), Ian McNeice and Annette Badland (The Fezziwig’s), Dominic West (Fred) and Rosie Wiggins (Fran).

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS # 27

 

Twas the night before Christmas

And all thru the Hall

Not a creature was stirring

After the Christmas Eve Ball

Except the servants of course

Who didn’t sleep at all
