Victotia addresses the Club
It’s that time of year when all thoughts turn towards Christmas and I mentioned this to my Simon…
Until one feels the spirit of Christmas, there is no Christmas. All else is outward display-so much tinsel and decorations. For it isn’t the holly, it isn’t the snow. It isn’t the tree not the firelight’s glow. It’s the warmth that comes to the hearts of men when the Christmas spirit returns again.
I’ve always wanted to be Father Christmas. Think how easy life would be, buy one big brown belt and you’re accessorised for life.
So with this in mind, I decree that the Wednesday night run tomorrow – 16th Dec shall be the official K & C Christmas Tat Run.
Every runner shall wear some Christmas artefact, whether it be a hat, a pair of flashing antlers or in Russ’s case an Elves costume.
I shall, of course, be running in my cheeky Father Christmas number with the red stockings and my Simon will be one of Santa’s Little Helpers, just like he is at home
For those failing to come suitably attired – a £1 fine will be levied which I shall collect whilst administering a suitable Christmas rebuke.
Victoria says:
For those who were not at the pub run last night, I feel that I need to clarify ‘my address to the club’. Alas, it was not I that sent the above message but my ghost writer (another cheeky elf in my kingdom called Bull**** Brett!) I’m not sure quite how he had the time in our busiest period up to Christmas, but rest assured, he has had a verbal warning.
My Simon and I may think seriously about whether he should be employed again next year.
Tee hee, thanks for a great night last night – had lots of fun!
Victoria.
P.S. there seems to be an unhealthy obsession in our club about Santa and stockings! See everyone soon. x

But you have to say, Simon does look rather good in them!

Relieved local youths not out in force last night to mock our festive capers. As a responsible citizen I have reported Arthur to Kildwick constabulary for his crime against good taste, although he wasn’t the only one in scary novelty shorts!
Bit disappointed not to see Russ as an elf and perhaps Dave in his fairy outfit. Maybe next year?
