[With apologies to Rogers and Hammerstein for fouling up a perfectly good song. Feel free to sing along, if you've a mind to.] <br /> <br />Robins and reindeer and tinsel and holly, <br />Christmas trees, mistletoe, Santa so jolly, <br />Listening to carollers sing 'We Three Kings', <br />These are a few of my favourite things. <br /> <br />Films like 'White Christmas' and 'Jack Frost' are charming. <br />Scrooge and his spirits are somewhat alarming. <br />And Julie Andrews - I love when she sings <br />'These are a few of my favourite things'. <br /> <br />Turkey and brussels and mince pies and jelly, <br />Eating till I've got no room in my belly, <br />Then scoffing more till my waist button pings, <br />These are a few of my favourite things. <br /> <br />When it's cold out, <br />And the night's long, <br />When I'm feeling blue, <br />I simply shout out 'Merry Christmas, my Friends, <br />And Happy New Year.....to you!
