And, if forever reason, you cant have a merry Christmas, have a peaceful one (as peaceful as you can have, with 1200watts, and 400 screaming kids syphoning alcohol out of the raffle prizes from under the raffle table, readjusting the settings on your equalizer and crossover, throwing Panda pop bottles at each other (and you), firmly refusing to dance to the (so-called) Christmas number One, as they feel that Noddy and Basil Brush was robbed, and cheating by refusing to "play dead" when "shot" by one of your gobo's.
May the driving conditions stay good for vans, trailers (and cars of Mum's and older brothers), may you have found all the presents that you bought for people (even those that you hid in a really really good hiding place, and now cant find them yourself) and have them wrapped up in time. May you find a car-parking space near to where you wish you'd shopped at yesterday, and may that "wretched shop" have at least "one left" of the item that you're looking for (and if you happen to grab the last one, just two seconds before some little old granny reaches for it, may you show goodwill and not hit her over the head with your wire basket).
May you find exactly the right words for when someone accuses you of "nicking" THEIR car-parking space at Sainsburys (the "right words" being - "Well, if I were Santa, I'd have parked it on the roof matey!")
And in about a weeks time, may you be able to pick-up the correct radio station to play the Big Ben chimes into your mixer for that "Radio-link up" on New Years Eve, without some pair of Scottish blokes talking all over the chimes.
May Santa bring you all that DMX gear that you asked for, and may you find something great in your Christmas Stockings, (do young ladies hang up a Chippendale thong, hoping it'll get filled?).
Overall, in whatever way you're hoping to celebrate Christmas - have a great time.
Seasons greetings
Gary.
