Happy Christmas to all on TB! It doesn't have to be 'commercial' - ricco has been watching too much TV and listening to Christmas jingles on the radio too much! I have only seen one advert, I think it was Lidl (?), the one with the Muslim sitting by the Christmas tree - Multicult shoved down your throats! I've avoided the Christmas panic, but did send a few cards with details written about our latest adventures not just 'Merry Xmas Fuck You' scribbled hastily inside. I got small presents for those who deserve them, charity shops come in real handy sometimes! Ringing the bells tomorrow for Christmas Day Service at Market Drayton church, that costs nothing and is entering the 'Christmas Spirit'. No parsnips and stuffing for me tomorrow, but I have some Blue Bishop Stilton and cheese biscuits, and a bottle of Glenfarclas to keep those pesky memories at bay Frantically trying to find things on the radio/ t.v. without either Christmas themes Kayaking at first light, head down to avoid any possibility of 'merry Christmas' from total strangers then off to my arse of a sister for several hours of living hell. This time tomorrow it will all be over, thank God. Well not thank God literally, I don't believe in God, you'll have gathered that I'm sure, but I'm sure you get my drift. What a miserable cunt you are

We too have an Xmas tree in our boat! Anyone recognise the painting? If it was in focus I might be able to recognise it

Its a Monet. Seems to be an original so could be worth a bit.
As for the painting the white does go well with the diagonal t&g. Its okay to have a bit of white on the cabin sides specially above the side decks. You don't want too much but a bit of white at this level helps with light and makes the boat a bit less coffin like.
Which is nice.
eta or has someone been clever and run an angle grinder down a straight edge on a sheet of ply to imitate t&g?

I don't know who painted it white. It's an old higgledy-piggledy tatty boat, but quite homely. The previous owner may be visiting us next week - I wonder if he will see the changes. We haven't decorated much inside.
Frozen mutton Farquharson - look him up. Bit of a sheep-fancier.

Quite a worrying name if you read it too quickly. Not a priest is he?

What a miserable cunt you are Snippet from my sister's Facebook: "A very happy christmas to my truly wonderful family and friends. So sorry if we haven't sent you all cards, Gary and I have sent a lot of money to charities this year, as we always do" I hope this gives you a flavour of what I'm up against.

Well Yeabut if doesn't have to be about your sister! I mean just being a Facebook Frauline would be enough for her to be disinherited! Leave your boat to the cat’s home!

Up against? Pöh! Send cards next year, sis, or truly wonderful relations will truly blank you. I mean... that's a bit cringeworthy.
How about sending her a 'refugee' as a Christmas present?

But that is the purest defintion of virtue signalling. Which is this year’s most damning phrase, somewhere well ahead of a baby-eating paedophile.

Just listened to an interesting half hour on radio 4 about artificial intelligence. Bit of a black hole now so I think I'll annoy you lot till 9 when there's a half hour slot on 4 about George Soros which should be worth a listen. Double header of 'Life Below Zero' on Travel Channel at 10 with a bottle of wine, that should be me done. Kayaking at first light, head down to avoid any possibility of 'merry Christmas' from total strangers then off to my arse of a sister for several hours of living hell. This time tomorrow it will all be over, thank God. Well not thank God literally, I don't believe in God, you'll have gathered that I'm sure, but I'm sure you get my drift. you should find your altruistic streak and go and volunteer down the local homeless shelter 👍

I will be celebrating the birth of Christ with a garlic chicken Kiev which I got in the reduced section at Morrisons, some piri piri oven chips and peas, and by putting a few coats of primer on my scooter wheel.

What colour is it going to be?

Silver, I thought about colour coding it but think that would make the bike a bit too slab-sided.
