Default Santa calls...

Santa, is that you?

Yes it is. How are you Helen?

Fine Santa do come in. The SIDE door is open.

(Santa comes in the house)

You look tired Santa. Would you like a drink?

Yes please, Helen, how about an ICE TEA?

Of course, Santa. I'll have it made in a TRICE.

How about a photo to remember today by, Santa?

Certainly - give the camera to Vernon to take it with. Remind him it's a bit
DARK in here, so he'll need to use the flash.

Festive cheers, helen s
(who is exceedingly chuffed)

The normal method of requesting gifts from Santa is to write a letter and
stuff it up the chimney.

How rude! Do you think I'm going to discuss such personal matters in a public
forum? How rude!

Cheers, helen s ;-)

Santa is exceedingly generous!

And besides he knows better than anyone you can't get down the chimney
in a trice - its a tad on the dark side ;-)

if I have too much turkey & red wine tomorrow, it could be ;-)

I am an exceedlingly lucky woman. yesterday Vernon announced he was taking me
to Cambridge today and wouldn't tell me why. I moaned and whinged about it,
having loads of things to do on Christmas Eve... So I got up this morning and
went out to collect the turkey just after 7am... Got home whereupon Vernon,
Nathan & I got in the car and headed off towards Cambridge. Driving down the
A10, Vernon pulls off at one of the villages as he had to collect some
documents from a lient. He said...

Vernon got out of the car and went into some property behind a large solid
fence & gate. Nathan & I sat in the car and waited. A little while later,
Vernon reappears & beckons me to go in. Nathan & I duly do so. Walking in to a
yard filled with recumbents of various types I thought "Well, at least I can
have a look about the bents whilst Vernon's doing the work stuff he has to do."
I'm introduced to a jolly chap by the name of Kevin who then starts wittering
on about a Trice that's nearby. Telling me all about things can be adjusted to
fit. I sort of looked confused and said to Vernon, "Wha?" To which Kevin looked
at Vernon and said, "I *am* sorry! Have I just ruined something? Didn't she
know?"

At this point Vernon said, "No you haven't spoilt anything - she just didn't
know about it in advance." At this point I think I levitated several feet off
the ground as the skies lit up and choirs appeared singing, "Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!" in full voice.

I am now the proud owner of a Trice Ice T.

Vernon, however, seems to blame this all one Pete Whelan and is muttering about
sending him a bill. In Pete's defence, I did *need* a Trice long before Pete
Whelan got his and long before Pete let me try his Trice.

Festive Cheers, helen s :-)

p.s. I need to think of a name for a blue Ice T Trice...

p.p.s. Darth Kevin is a jolly and kind chappie. He got Nathan riding a
2-wheeler bent - much to the hilarity of Vernon & I. Oh how we laughed as
Nathan wobbled down the road. Mind you he got used to it a darned sight quicker
than I would. And, as well as the normal flag which comes with the Trice, that
nice man Kevin gave me a rather natty one in the form of a wind-surfer. It'll
be my summer flag :-)

I'm sure there's a subliminal message in there, but it took me three goes,
and a tip back of the computer seat, to read it ..

Nice one. Merry Christmas to you and yours.

Been feeling Santa's sack already? Must be quite a bulging one ;-)

Congratulations!! I look forward to reading plenty of reports on what the
content is like to ride.

It was indeed. I enjoyed looking at it and having a good old feel :-)

Thank you - I am thinking that if I put the turkey in the oven first thing in
the morning, leave notes for Vernon & Nathan of preparing the veggies,
Christmas lunch can be just about prepared by the time I get back from
baptising Mr Frosty, so all I have to do is boil the brussels & carve the meat!

Festive cheers, helen s
