Hello, my festive chums! Ali here and, firstly, please let me apologise for the column being a day late this week – Mrs Al-Habsi has had me out Christmas shopping so I’ve been rather busy. And what a week it’s been! So, without further ado, here’s my musings for the past few days. Peace, love and a reet boozy & proper Crimbo to all of you. Your very dear friend, Father Habsi-mas. xxx
- The economic crisis currently engulfing this country in a dark and sinister manner really isn’t very nice.
- Tamir Cohen obviously doesn’t watch much on TV other than comedy programmes.
- Having said that, the Harry Gary CaHill DVD is bloody hilarious.
- Tom Chambers? TOM CHAMBERS? He shouldn’t even have been in the final. It’s a bloody disgrace.
- Watching the music channels has convinced me that Bo Selecta’s Proper Crimbo is the finest festive tune ever. I can’t believe none of my team-mates have selected it so I’m showing the video here:
- Having seen Ruth from the X-Factor at the Royal Premiere of the new Dolph Lundgren movie Snails on a Plane this week (and yes, before you ask, I do get invited to such high-profile events), I’d like to know if she’s selling those puppies? If so, I’ll have the one with the pink nose. But don’t tell Mrs Al-Habsi….she’s got a canine allergy…

- Keep an eye out for Lardel & Lee’s festive culinary special – it’s a belter!
- It was a shame to see Ian Walker leave the club last week but, if rumours are to be believed, he will get a deal with a US Major League team soon. Can’t see why he wants to go to the land of obesity, psychotic college kids and lap dancing to be honest with you but good luck to him all the same.
- I’d like to sing about all the things, your eyes and mind can see.
I’m asking you if you’ll oblige, stepping into Christmas with meeeeeeeeeeeeee!
