It’s all going rather well!!

Only three weeks to go till Santa slides sveltely down the chimney (Even Santa has a personal trainer these days). He says he has big bones but Mrs Claus will beg to differ - She asked me to pass on a special message from her and the little helpers.

“Please don’t leave mince pies and sherry this Christmas Eve. If you want to help us and all the children of the future, place a nice crispy leaf of lettuce, some sliced onion, tomato and drizzle with some low cal dust ( you can eat as much dust as you like – its virtually calorie free and relatively inexpensive!)  All washed down with a bottle of yummy still water! “With your help we can keep the blighter going for a few more years.

Talking of funny foodstuffs – I heard on the radio this morning that when the Tombs of Egypt were being excavated (raided and plundered if you like ;) Shopkeepers in London would import a Mummy and place it in their shop window - to give the impression of being well travelled and successful. One of the off shoots was a dubious delicacy called “Mummy Dust” – (See it's all linked – I’m not just rambling) Powdered Mummy - Eeeeeeew! You’d take a pinch and sprinkle sparingly into a good stiff shot of port for a bit of a lift towards the late afternoon.  

You couldn’t make this up could you!

 

Anyway…….Number 19 in the Billboard Classical Crossover charts WOOHOOOO! I received an email from the Associate Chart Production Manager, asking who Deviations Project was, as we’d just popped in to their chart!! Well I had to have a quiet word with Matron, who very kindly reminded me ;) 

We’re both ecstatic and I’ll be filling you in on the results of a very important meeting on Wednesday the 10^th next week!

Toodles!
