A cascading cornucopia of cool comics, crazy cartoons, & classic collectables - plus other completely captivating & occasionally controversial contents. With nostalgic notions, sentimental sighings, wistful wonderings, remorseful ruminations, melancholy musings, rueful reflections, poignant ponderings, & yearnings for yesteryear. (And a few profound perplexities, puzzling paradoxes, & a bevy of big, beautiful, bedazzling, buxom Babes to round it all off.)
I was expecting a special festive post yesterday, Kid, but Merry Christmas again anyway. I ate my Stollen last night as planned and this morning I had my Cadbury's chocolate Santa and a festive sausage roll with cranberries in (I've got another one of those for tonight and a can of Captain Morgan rum & Pepsi).
I've got a chicken dinner for later, half a selection box ('cos I've already scoffed the other half), a bottle of Pepsi Max in the fridge, and 2 boxes of mince pies, CJ. Merry Xmas.
Ah...TV Comic - a blast from the past ( pre-Marvel days! ) I've got one in my garage, somewhere. I've had a mint Choc Orange, mint Matchmakers, & After Eights...so, too much mint flavour! Start with chocs, and you just can't stop! Merry Christmas, Kid & Colin!
Ugh! I detest the smell or taste of mint, P, so have never eaten it. I even use strawberry toothpaste 'cos I hate mint. All other chocolate very welcome though. And Merry Xmas to you and yours too.
Merry Christmas to you, Kid and all Crivvies! I'm not a fan of TV Comic but that's a great cover. I loved all the comics at Christmas, somehow the snow on top of the letters made them even more appealing. I wonder which was the first comic to do this? I'm sure I've read it somewhere.
So you've never tasted mint sauce, Kid. My grandmother made her own mint sauce from mint that grew in her garden. I've never heard of anyone who didn't like mint!
I detest even a hint of mint with a passion, CJ - it is anathema to me. I'd never kiss a gal who smelt of it, never mind ate it. Disgusting! I don't think I've ever heard of anyone who didn't like it either, which surely makes me unique.

It was a great day, G, in that it was a quiet day. I spent it by myself, as I have every Christmas for around the last 35 years. Friends do sometimes invite me, but I always decline, as I'm now far too used to being on my own during the season. Glad to hear you had the kind of Christmas you enjoy, and I hope Santa was good to you.

It was Comic Cuts #32, M, back on December 20th 1890. And a Merry Xmas to you too.

Merry Christmas, Kid!! Hope it was a great day. I got to spend time with all of my family yesterday and today, so it was a great Christmas!!
