Saturday
I placed an advert in our local freebie newspaper,
'Attractive woman seeks male for companionship, sex a distinct possibility' and gave
our telephone number, so with any luck my mother will be having a boyfriend before very long.
Went out carol singing with Brain Damage in the evening. We used to go
before Christmas like everybody else, but we found that
if you do that you get lots of measly bastards who won't answer the door. If you
go after Christmas they always come to the door, to ask you why you're singing
carols when Christmas has already gone. By
the time they realise they've been had it's too late because we're already rattling the
collecting tin in their faces. They usually cough up because Stinking has quite a good
voice and our Away In A Manger always goes down very well, although some people say they
prefer it with the original words.
