these are first drafts. They are just quick and dirty texts designed to be dashed off and posted as (hopefully) tasty treats for after Christmas. Different styles and genres, little fancies inspired by the twelve days of Christmas. Don't worry too much about imperfections please - when I get the chance I will tidy them up. I just wanted to kick start my year by writing a few speculative pieces and I thought that sharing them with you might make up for any lost cards or inadequate presents ....

So, numbers 1, 2, 3 and 9 were written on the 4th to 6th of January (I started late because of flu, etc) and I will post the rest in the coming days.... please feel free to comment. Happy new year!

Remember the song?

Just to remind you....

On the twelfth day of Christmas,
My true love sent to me
Twelve lords a-leaping,
Eleven ladies dancing,
Ten drummers drumming,
Nine maids a-milking,
Eight pipers piping,
Seven swans a-swimming,
Six geese a-laying,
Five gold rings,
Four calling birds,
Three French hens,
Two turtle doves, and
A partridge in a pear tree.
