Be good, for goodness' sake
Dec. 19th, 2006 09:30 pmTwo important questions:
The other day, I read someone casually referring to "leaving milk and cookies out for Santa" - like it was a normal thing. Frankly, I feel t'old chap is getting rather a poor deal in that household. I always left a mince pie, a glass of sherry, and a carrot (for the reindeer). At lunchtime today I heard someone old enough to have grandchildren waxing quite irate about one of her grandchildren having mentioned leaving whisky out for Santa - she thought it should be sherry, too.
So, what did you leave ?
Owing to time pressures one evening last week, my evening meal was formed from a packet of Monster Much (pre-gig) and some toast and Marmite (post-gig). The packet of Monster Munch was very large, but the actual Munches themselves were disappointingly small. I'm sure you used to be able to wear Monster Munch as rings - and yes, I know my fingers are bigger than whenever I last ate Monster Munch twenty years ago - but now they're tiny little things.
Have Monster Munch gone a bit Wagon Wheels and shrunk ?
