All the latest news and gossip!

Season's Greetings

Are we in the season of merriment again already? Goodness, where did the year go? So much time and so little to do……......

Writing this my thoughts drift towards how as individuals we enjoy the winter holiday. I find a glass of sherry whilst sitting in front of a roaring log fire particularly pleasurable at this time of year, particularly after a refreshing walk where the snow is crisp underfoot and the naked trees are basking in winter sunshine. What better circumstance is there to be aurally pleasured by the classic sounds of one of our all time favourites like Old Man Williams? Ah, what bliss!

But perhaps you have an entirely different winter ritual? It is rumoured that Tarquin Yahtzee (he of The Dog’s Bollox) spends the entire time in bed, appearing only for food and drink perhaps once or twice. Of course the hugely popular JuSt LeZ is constantly in demand entertaining partygoers, and likewise Bad Boy Keefy is often seen amusing young children with his humorous tales and teefy tunes. So how do you enjoy the season? Send an email titled “Xmas with Nod” to crimbo@nodthedog.co.uk and share your thoughts – who knows, it could become a whole new Christmas ritual for readers of The Daily Nod?

In the meantime, Merry Christmas and all good yuletide wishes to our many readers. May your turkey be well basted and your mince pies fresh! If you have young children, then don’t forget plenty of black bin bags for all of the wrapping paper that will inevitably be strewn around the floor come Christmas morning. ‘Tis the season to be jolly, fa la la la la………'

Good King Wenceslas looked out......

More Tea Vicar?

How the con-man may have looked in his vicar's disguise.

Last month we reported that Bad Boy Keefy, drummer with The Dog's Bollox, had bought a massiff new drum kit. Keefy was delighted to buy the new kit and had no doubts about the legitimacy of the purchase as he handed over his cash to an innocent looking vicar.

However, it seems that all was not as it should have been, and in fact the kit was never for sale in the first place. What's more, the 'vicar' was actually a notorious con-man who had donned a cunning disguise for the ruse.

Apparently, the massiff drum kit had been left set up in a local church hall in preparation for a scouting association concert the following evening. The con-man, seeing the money making opportunity, had wasted no time in putting an advert on Ebay and then dashing down to the fancy dress outfitters for his disguise.

Naturally, Bad Boy Keefy saw the apparent bargain and immediately arranged to view the kit, armed with a fist full of cash. The drummer's delight has now been returned to its rightful owner, but alarmingly the pseudo clergyman remains at large.

However, all's well that ends well in that Keefy in his enthusiasm to restore the kit to pristine condition, has replaced all of the parts of the kit with new ones. So it was a simple matter of handing over the old discarded bits in order to make up the original kit as sold on Ebay.

Phew, a lucky escape eh Keefy?
