Santa's been a bad boy, party too hard. I bet he's gone after some cute girl, forget the goody-goody image.
Is Charles 1 King a street musician?
I love street musicians. The first time I saw one was in London, I was quite excited. The second time, in Sydney, and I had to stop and listen then give them some money.
GG: yes he is a street musician. My camera was playing up so I forgot to ask his name but read it from my photo. I gave him some money and asked if I could take his photo.
There aren't many street musicians about these days. Lots of street beggars, but it always seemed to me that street musicians weren't beggars - they gave something in return. I wonder if you'd remember a band of ex-servicemen who used to play, as a small band, in Central London in the fifties called (I think) The Happy Wanderers? I should think they averaged about two sound limbs per man but they played good, cheery, military music, and I always stopped to listen, and then donated.
Grand mother but still a girl at heart. Married to MTL(my true love)after a separation of 30 years. Had three careers: trained paediatric nurse, National photographic model and business woman. Now settled in SW and enjoying our five children and ten grandchildren and making the most of what time we have left.
In January 2013 I lost MTL.

I like the banjo idea. Bluegrass and celtic with beards.
The Christmas tree is surprisingly symmetrical like something from Alice.
Its also reassuring to know that even santa goes a bit headless around Christmas.
Come to think of it, so did Charles I (King).
Mike and Ann: the name rings a bell but I don't remember them. My memory isn't what it was.
I do remember some wonderful musicians on the Underground.
Rashbre: Lovely comment. Tee hee!
