And Happy New Year to you, Magnum T. I trust you greeted in the New Year by toasting it with Old Dusseldorf.

Hi guys and happy new year to you also. I'll see your Old Dusseldorf and raise the stakes by a stout or maybe 2, well probably 4 if I am being honest. After all 'tis the season.

If this card game goes into the wee hours, I have a draught proposal:
Murphy's 2nd Law. If it's getting to be breakfast time, oatmeal stout.

Allow me to drop something else I wrote for the season ...

A Christmas renku ~

On a star filled night
One shone bright, God's guiding light
Above Bethlehem

Scared and alone they set out
Following their rulers law

To his home they came
Not a burden but a Gift
She carried within

From out of the East hey rode
Kings to bow and bear witness

Among God's creatures
In a stable they made rest
Awaiting his birth

No proclamations were made
But the powerful did know

In a straw manger
In the simplest of places
Our Saviour was born

Ho, ho, ho! All the best to you and your families. Feeling fortunate this year despite all the doom and gloom in the news.
