Unfortunately, I don't know the home addresses of the majority of blog visitors so I haven't been able to send you Christmas cards. Instead, I have designed this special card for you. Please print it off - in colour of course - carefully cut it out and stick it to a suitable piece of card:-
Next write inside your preferred name followed by "Season's Greetings" and then "Love from Yorkshire Pudding". When the card is finished, place it proudly on your mantelpiece for family and Christmas visitors to admire.
The idea for posting a Christmas card for blog visitors came from John Gray @ "Going Gently" and the legend, "Merry Christmas Everybody" came from the Romanian "Big Issue" seller on Stamford's high street. The photograph came from The Hope Valley - I snapped it myself a few days ago.
Happy Christmas, YP, It has been a pleasure learning about the real England from you.
ReplyDeleteMay you and all of yours be well in the New Year.
P.S. I am carefully cutting out the card!
That's good Reamus. A little glitter is also allowed. Thanks for calling by here from time to time. Much appreciated.
DeleteWaaaa! My printer died so no printing for me! Haha.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas YP!
You could print it off at work when The Evil Assistant Manager is sleeping in his cave with the other monsters.
DeleteThank you YP, and a very Happy Christmas to you, Mrs YP and the two little YP's. Sadly we don't have a mantelpiece, so I'll have to find somewhere else.
ReplyDeleteDo you have a toilet CG?...Feliz Navidad Senora Cee-Gee.
DeleteYes, but the card might be a bit abrasive......
DeleteMerry Christmas to you and a happy healthy New Year.
ReplyDeleteMutual ADDY...mutual.
DeleteAnd a peaceful and happy Christmas to you YP
ReplyDeleteDitto John...Ditto.
DeletePenblwydd hapus i ti a dy deulu, YP. :)
ReplyDeleteEh? Are you turning into a female version of Stanley Unwin Jenny? Happy Christmas young lady!
Deleteps. Please check your junk mail because I have sent you an e-card and you don't seem to have picked up last year's yet! ;)
ReplyDeleteIs it too late for me to say thanks for last year's e-card? But I haven't seen this year's e-card yet. I will do as you say.
DeleteThat's a lovely card. It will look very tasetful and elegant between the red nosed reindeers and merry polar bears. Merry Christmas Mr Pudding.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget the robins, the Christmas bells and the candles Sue. Merry Christmas to you and your beau.
DeleteAnd this comes from me.....Done as instructed!
ReplyDeleteMy very best wishes to you and Shirley, Yorkie. I hope you have a wonderfully Merry Christmas - relax and enjoy the Season and all that goes with it - your way. :)
Why thank you kindly Missie Lee. I hope you don't get snowed in in your cabin this Christmas. Have a good one!
DeleteIt makes a very lovely card!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a lovely Christmas
And I bounce the same hope back to you Kylie.
DeleteI really like your style of card . Clever. Whoever took the photos did a top notch job. Merry Christmas! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteCheeky guy! By the way I was just watching an interesting item on BBC World News with Stephen Sackur - all about First Nation Canadians and their struggles. Very interesting.
DeleteMerry Xmas sir!
I've been riding your blog for few years now, must say I've enjoyed the journey, your walks, your observances of the life around you and your poetry. Well I must be tired tonight, your card brought me to tears. I'm becoming a silly old woman! I want to wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and peace, love and hope for your coming year.
ReplyDeleteI have not been riding anything, but I have been reading. Damn, I thought I finally did a comment with no mistakes!Maybe next year.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of "riding' a blog Wenda - like a surfer riding the waves. It sounds more daring, more exciting than just "reading". I am so pleased to learn that you have found pleasure in this blog. Such comments make it all seem worthwhile. Merry Christmas surf-lady!
DeleteThank you for the lovely card, kind sir.
ReplyDeleteAnd seasons greetings to you and your Pudding household.
Alphie
Merry Christmas to the rest of the alphabet Alphie! Especially to the oft-neglected Q, X and Z.
DeleteThank you YP...a lovely card. x
ReplyDeleteAnd Happy Xmas to you and yours Libby!
DeleteIt is a beautiful card but I can't print it, as my printer needs either repairing or replacing (probably the latter). However, I very much appreciate your having sent the card out to all your blogging friends, a group I proudly count myself in with.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you, Shirley, and all those who matter to you.
PS: I know I have once had your address in an email, but stupidly must have deleted it without transscribing it into my address book. I checked this morning because I have something I'd like to send to you.
PPS: Not a Christmas present, by the way, so it won't matter if it arrives after the holidays.
DeleteI will check my e-mail links and send my address if you are still there. I hope it's a fat envelope filled with banknotes.
DeleteThank you! Fat envelope, yes; banknotes, no, I'm afraid!
Delete(My email adresses have not changed.)
Sorry, bit late commenting here, but thanks for the beautiful Christmas card. I hope that you and yours have a " Merry Christmas" !
ReplyDeleteThe same to you Frances. Happy Christmas.
