Aladdin revisited.....

.....in this case it would be AladdIn Sane (cue background music). When asked what he wanted for Christmas the-boy-in-the-attic requested 'tins of paint and a carpet please'....

TOP TIP: for any of you still with last minute presents to buy.....your local decorating shop WILL be deserted (it'll just be you and the tumbleweed) and they WON'T be playing bloody festive music on a loop......and if you're really lucky there'll be a bowl of sweeties on the counter.....
