Ho, Ho *Heave* Ho

Teddy's not sure exactly what happened.

It has taken weeks to make a film with the little people for the Christmas service. They even created a Wishing Tree and hung up Their Christmas wishes for the world and practised introductions and readings.

They have been planning their special last day Christmas Meal that they would cook for special guests: chicken drumsticks, homemade stuffing and breadsauce, sausages in bacon, roast pot, chocolate pudding, Christmas pudding and a special healthy tasting platter of exotic fruits like persimmon, pawpaw, passion fruit , mango and pineapple. Teddy and playmate made a 150 mile round trip to get the food late one night.

The church was set up, invitations sent out, food was prepped.

Then half of them, how shall we say, took unpleasantly ill. The service was cancelled. The lunch was cancelled. Nothing was left but colouring in.

So teddy's started the holiday with a pineapple. Hes not sure what to do with it. but not that Teddy. thats not very festive. or tasteful.

And a cold. Teddy . Sniff sniff teddy.
