A press release from northway house by
from aaron gershfield and his management team.
Meade plc and its affiliated companies
unfortunately are announcing that due to reduced
sales christmas is cancelled.
Staff will have to forgo their usual 25.00 christmas bonus.
Tenants will not be able to enjoy the usual asda sparkling
wine and frozen sausage rolls buffet.
Preferred clients will miss out on the normal 1 litre of
white lightening cider.
Our companies will send out no christmas cards this year.
Aaron will however send out a single salutation to all
With special thanks to the following
The remainder of his loyal staff.
All his creditors.
All his bankers.
All government agencies.
And the hoards of adoring fans for their support
during the past 12 months.
Aaron has chosen extract from the seasonal poem,
the night before christmas, but has added his own
slant to this well loved poem.
Twas the night before Christmas and all through Northway house,
Nothing was stirring not even a mouse.
The rats ate the mice and then went to ground,
The building was empty not a soul to be found.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
Stuffed full of writs from those who would dare.
When out on the lawns was heard such a clatter,
Aaron leapt from his chair to see whats the matter,
Away to the window he flew like a flash,
Now where could he hide his ill-gotten cash?
The moon on the breast of the new fallen snow,
Gave the luster of midday to objects below.
When what to his wandering eyes should appear,
Bailiffs? Not Santa it made him feel queer.
And then in a twinkling he heard from on high,
The roof caving in and thought my! Oh my!
As he drew in his head and was turning around,
Down the chimney the taxman came with a bound.
He was dressed all in fur from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot.
A large brown sack he had slung on his back,
I have come for the loot pal from you and your pack.
He spoke not a word but went straight to his work,
He filled up his sack and then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
He gave a quick nod and up the chimney he rose.
He sprang on his sleigh and gave his team their cue,
Then Aaron was led off by the boys dressed in blue.
But he was heard to exclaim! As he was driven from sight,
Happy Christmas to all and to all a goodnight.
