Christmas!
I don't want to get too self righteous or jump onto the moral high ground but I do want to set a challenge. For Christmas this year why don't you give or ask for just one selfless gift? Get something for someone else who could use it alot more than you, I dare you! In my family we're always made to write lists and so this year I've asked for 20 chickens! It's only a small step but an important one. Check out send a cow gifts here

Thanks, Tim. I have put the link on my Christmas list (along with a yellow beetle called Gladys).

Me too. I put the link on but really ...
I suppose Secret Santa could be awfully ethical this year. Hmm.

Damn, hoist by my own petard (whatever that means.)
Incidentally seeing as you're in Christmas mode, Josie, how about writing something for the Christmas concert?
My idea for a sketch involving turkeys and bird flu has been banned by the authorities, but a cool ethical sketch, yes, I can hear your cogs turning now ...

Liz why don't you ask me to write something? I'm offended

Tim, if you recall, the last time you wrote something for me you said you would never write anything again.
But since you're both offering...
the theme is Christmas cards. Well actually it's going to be christmas cards coming to life. So maybe you could do a Christmas card with a difference. Could you come up with something about ethical shopping (involving Ben Brown dressed as a chicken/goat/rat - delete as appropriate)do you think? Either a sketch or a monologue or poem.
It is good of you to volunteer so willingly. I have told Alun to include you in the line-up. He was so thrilled he couldn't stop jumping up and down.

I was merely making a self indulgent, self pitying point Liz. I'll stand by my original statement - I'm never writing anything again. Jo I'll offer you my moral support and proof read it and nothing else!
Can we make Ben dress up as a mole?

Cluck, cluck, cluck, Timmo!
Seriously - no, really - what you wrote before was great and you definitely should have a go.
Failing that, you could join the eleven drummers drumming? At the moment we're all going to have be moving around a lot to give the impression of eleven.
Looking forward to your talky bit tomorrow!
