Here’s a Cullimore wagon I spotted earlier this week and it’s name suits this thread…
“Jacob Marley.”
I lived upto the Scrooge element too as the photo was taken at the Glider cafe at Aston Down…I parked in the layby but didn’t buy anything.

Better than that, Dave. At a visit to a garden centre earlier, I left some Father Christmas figures in some rather compromising positions, with snowmen, angel figures, cuddly animals etc. 
Santa proving that it was indeed to be better giving rather than receiving…
Animal, you are in real danger of turning this thread into something vaguely resembling, “sensible”. Do try to lose the plot at approximately the same speed as the rest of us. And blow that candle out after you’ve finished typing- no wonder you’ve got nothing in your pockets.

ListenIt’s not Yorkshire tea, we don’t grow team in Yorkshire, Rhubarb is our main crop.
As for the yoofs and mere kids infesting the ‘old timers’.thread…they should know their place.Bah Humbug■■? I’ve ‘had words’ with the manager of our local Wetherspoons. He did erect a 6ft Christmas tree on Novenber 1st
Ridiculous.And remember this…there are 12 days of Christmas, and none of em are in b loody November
Bah Humbug
Well spoken Sir! But…er…having a pint of rhubarb…? Never tried that before
As for that manager, did he had one to many…? Putting that tree up on the 1st of November…
I do wonder about that “local” though, is that Leeds then? Or Bradford? Maybe even Wakefield
Oh and you were spotted when you got down to that Wetherspoons to have that civilised conversation with the manager, better to let the air out next time I reckon…
That looks remarkably like our old friend Harry Gill on thatshagginwaggon!!!
It’s not Mr Gill, Harry would never be seen in a motor as clean as that, he preferred the ‘weathered’ look.
As for the local 'spoons…The Union Rooms, Dewsbury.

Whoa, another requirement is to be a cynical old git…like wot I am. 
Anybody over 70 will be accepted without answering any medical questions. 
THank goodness for that, gom. I was wondering when my doctor would be sober enough to sign the “sistificut”!

Don’t worry I won’t be putting my tree up this year due to lack of interest

Mrs rigsby is wanting to go shopping for xmas cards tomorrow . Where have all last years gone ? It would be easier to readdress them and send them back to where the came from . I’m sure our esteemed member GOM would agree concerning the outrageous cost of cards , hell a cheap one is 99p and the family cards are ridiculously expensive . We shall see them all xmas day and say merry xmas anyway . Don’t get me on about present either , spend hours buying useless tat , to receive equally useless tat back , and the house is already festooned with said tat that we can’t throw out " because if so and so calls they’ll notice it’s gone " Bah Humbug again .
