Do you think GR will be decorating the board this year? If so, what do you think they will give us? I hope it is better than it has been the last 2 years, but I am not holding my breath.

There is a recession on - perhaps they can't afford the electricity.

LOL, SRS. I think they are so peeved with us because we were so critical of the puny attempt last year that they arent going to bother this year. Or it could be that they are so exhausted with thinking up the new changes that they are just sitting back resting on their laurels.

Or could it be that Christmas decorations are no longer PC? They might offend some people.

Oh, how very generous! But then you dont want too much snow in England or America do you? I wouldnt mind a little bit down here in NZ as it is so hot and muggy. But one flake wont cool things down much.

Well you can see that it took a lot of thought and effort to come up with that rather lonely looking snowflake. Better to have nothing, I think, it looks pathetic. BCXX
