New BooksSex and The Forest
A cooperative of ten Forest (of Dean) writers have produced a bold new book. Entitled ‘Sex and the Forest’, it contains a series of short stories each celebrating the act of sex. Writing frankly yet well about this delicate topic is a difficult task, yet the authors have produced a sophisticated and entertaining little volume. Costing a mere £5.99, it will make an interesting and unusual present for those of a more daring nature – a real ‘fern ticket’ of a read! This 32 page book measures 21cm tall by 15cm
wide. It contains a story by yours truly, and ten other stories which are
indeed entertaining, original and stimulating

A
Christmas Miscellany
Some of the best writing remembering Christmases past. Plus all you
need to know about seasonal customs, fascinating facts, eg...
The depiction of Father Christmas as a fat, bearded, jolly old man was standardised by the German-born American artist Thomas Nast (1840 - 1902). His cartoon of Father Christmas appeared in Harper's Weekly in January 1863. However, circumferential challenge and follicular prodigality pre-date Nash in pictures of Father Christmas...
In order to deliver all his presents, it has been calculated that Father Christmas could not spend more than 0.00008 seconds in each house. (Estimates vary.)
The Royal Mail first exhorted people to post early for Christmas in 1881.
In 1213, King John ordered 3000 capons, 1000 eels, 400 pigs, 100 lbs of almonds and 24 casks of wine for his Christmas dinner. (He presumably had other people to help him eat it.)
A GCSE Religious
Studies 2010 examination paper was criticised for being insufficiently
difficult. A picture of the Nativity was reproduced, showing two adults
standing by the manger. Candidates were asked the taxing question:
name the two people in the picture
A maximum of two marks was awarded. This was in order to
distinguish between those who could identify both mystery characters, and those
who could name only one.
Nativity
Plays:
Some teachers take the view that the part of Gabriel should be given to the girl
who should have played Mary but whose parents are less trouble.
Misheard lyrics: 'deep pan, crisp and even'; 'the cattle are glowing, the
baby awakes'; 'Away in a manger, two quid for a bed'.
And there's more where that came from... but you'll have to buy the book!
