Katy from Cbeebies is offering to do kids parties in the style of her programme, I can cook.

It's a bit extravagant, but I'm seriously tempted.... But is it more for my benefit or the kids? Hmmm....

This woman has a voice that should not be set to music. My goodness I’ve heard her sing some kind of theme tune for a show called ‘I Can Cook’ twice now, and I rushed in from the kitchen to save my son from being mauled by the rabid fox screaming as it scratched it’s claws down a blackboard to instead find that noise was issuing from her face hole.

Not a fan then? I think she's great.

I didn’t watch the rest of the show, which may be awesome, but I take issue with bbc license money being used to fund that abomination of a noise that constitutes a theme song. She should not have been paid for that.

Also, Kat is the best CeeBeeBies presenter.

I like Maddie and her show, too, the few I’ve seen. Though Russell pointed out that she gurns a lot and now I cannot unsee the gurning.

There should be a law against making people with self-esteem issues do stupid self assessment appraisals.

"What has gone well?"

"Um-errr (nothing, I am terrible at my job, and I think less of you for not having sacked me years ago.) My clearance rates are okay, I guess"

They’re opening one here, too.

The CEO doesn’t allow any Harry Potter themed stuff in the stores as it has links with the occult, and he calls himself an energetic evengelical Christian, so itslikely there will be no Halloween presence in the stores, so maybe they’ve fast forwarded to Slade singing the religious tale of the lord and saviour, which I am sure is the deeper meaning of the lyrics.

Code:

Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?
 It's the time that every Santa has a ball
 Does he ride a red-nosed reindeer?
 Does it ton-up on his sleigh?
 Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?

This verse relates to the non-religious view of Christmas, sarcastically mocking listeners who think this is all that it's about and the emptyiness of their beliefs.

Code:

So here it is, Merry Christmas
 Everybody's having fun

This relates to the gathering for the Census and reunion of families etc in ancient Nazareth.

Code:

Look to the future now
 It's only just begun

Because the Messiah's here, at last.

Code:

Are you waiting for the family to arrive?
 Are you sure you've got the room to spare inside?

It's a cramped stable and there's only so much room for the shepherds, animals, and Magi to squeeze into.

Code:

Does your granny always tell you
 That the old songs are the best?
 Then she's up and rock 'n' rolling with the rest

An unnecessary slight at the angels and also a dig at the unreformed practices in the temples.

I imagine that having to go to your home town for the census called by the Emperor would have been used as an excuse for a party by at least some sectors of the population, but I can't say I've ever studied the gospels in that much depth. Probably an ASV thing.

We did a team building event last night at a street art gallery (because of course we did.) We got to make our own piece of stencil graffiti on a canvas. Pretty pleased with mine:

Art isn't really team building though is it? I find it a dark, twisted journey into my own subconscious fears. And brush cleaning.
