Christmas Day aftermath

so many things for christmas day!
the sound of wrapping paper being torn, smiles on faces, reflected gratitude for small joys unlooked for.

hugs and kisses from friends not seen for too long

messages and distant touches from bebil and jody

the belly laughs i had while reading the first chapter of a book Sharon gave me for christmas


I think it was the lugubrious reference to page three of the sun that really got me laughing, he'd computed that in his time away from england he'd missed some 9,000 women exposing their boobs to him, i couldn't help but laugh at the thought of what i'd also missed.

and, whilst sad, i'm grateful for James Brown who died yesterday. i'll miss him. He was played a lot by me at Sharon's wedding reception in 1988, he never failed to wake me up, and gave everyone a little shaken booty now and again, i think i managed to sneak some on the the soundtrack to my wedding too

bye James, thanks for all the FUNk.
