Danny Lloyd played the role of Danny
Torrance in Kubrick's version of the film.

(Oh, Danny Lloyd,
the pipes, the pipes are calling....)

* refills everyones glasses and buckets *

Thanks, Light. I had just drained the last one!

*settles down for a snooze*

You look like you have had a long day Caerwynn

Have you got everythign ready for Christmas?

thanks for the bucket, oh light of me eyes

just finished this years last christmas greeting - via email, of course. thirsty work!

You are welcome my captain

* thinks about what she knows of the captains year and wonders if it makes interesting reading *

* In most broadest Lancashire Accent *

I'll have half a pint of gin and a packet of roasted peanuts please

one of the highlights was meeting you, of course - but then you knew that already, didn't you?

another thing was getting the ship in the sea, of course

other than that? nah, nothing worth mentioning. but the kids are all right and that is of course a fathers main concern as well as his biggest joy!

Oh Captian!

* passes the man in the flat cap with a whippet a pint of gin and a packet of peanuts *

Oh Hi OUZ - did not recognise you for a moment!

Seein` as ow we`re on large measures today, how about a jug of Balvenie, Light?

Seeing as how it is you Lurcher Certainly

* passes bucket of Belvenie *

You`ll do for me gal

Wonder if I`ve got dates mixed up somehow....
Fireworks exploding outside..... It is December isn`t it

* checks her diary *

Well it says December here ...

Apart from that how are things?

Going well Light, got that funeral over, turned out to be a great day (in the circumstances that is, you know what I mean) so all clear for the festivities.
Snow threatening here... cold as a witches t*t... so could be a white one
How`s things with you?

I am glad it went off OK - I was thinking of you.

Its very cold here too and now I am here i dont mind if it snows - it would mean I dont have to go to my parents! I have had a lovely day - W**k party last night so stayed in Brum then went to see a friend this am on the way home which was a great way to start the weekend. I am feeling a bit more relaxed now, even written a couple of Christmas Cards. I am still so not ready for Christmas! I am also very tired and in need of some comfort and rest!

When do you get invaded?

Well, Adam is working `til around 6/7pm Christmas eve, say a couple of hours travelling, so hopefully we`ll all be down the pub about 9ish!
From then..... see what transpires! We`ll be round at Joanne`s, buried under kid`s presents no doubt, for dinner Christmas day,
All good stuff
Hope you get the relaxation time in, parents or no parents, sounds like you need it

Sounds like you have it all planned out and not too much work for you or your wife either!

I hope I do - I do have to work but probably form home not Brum which is good

* sips her G&T *

Probably get "decended" on on Boxing day, but that`s OK
*buries his head in the Balvenie*

Well its the more relaxed of the two days so hopefully not too much efofrt is required

Refil?

*Drains the bucket*
Well OK then, have to make it my last, there`s not enough blood in my alcohol stream
Think I`ll go for a long walk tomorrow (without golf clubs!), perhaps find a little hostelry along the way........again!
