MERRY CHRISTMAS Part 1

Especially for the male readers of this blog, may you find one of
these under your tree this year (and still have the strength to
enjoy it)

This is a Holtieshouse Christmas wish for all my friends.

Each year, for about 20 years now, I have bombarded my
friends and family with a Christmas poem, these have been
written with much more enthusiasm than talent I must say,
but as they have been tolerated by said friends and family
I thought why should my cyber friends escape, I really feel
for those of you who get both issues.... SUFFER

Blondes at Christmas.


There were two blondes who
went deep into the frozen
woods searching for a
Christmas tree.

After hours of subzero
temperatures and a few
close calls with wild animals,
one blonde turned to the
other and said, "I'm chopping
down the next tree I see.
I don't care whether it's
decorated or not!"
