"When four of Santa's elves got sick, the trainee elves did not produce toys as fast as the regular ones, and Santa began to feel the pre-Christmas pressure.
Then Mrs. Claus told Santa that her Mother was coming to visit, which stressed Santa even more.
When he went to harness the reindeer, he found that three of them were about to give birth and two others had jumped the fence and were out, Heaven knows where.
Then when he began to load the sleigh, one of the floorboards cracked, the toy bag fell to the ground and all the toys were scattered.
Frustrated, Santa went in the house for a cup of apple cider and a shot of rum. When he went to the cupboard, he discovered the elves had drunk all the cider and hidden the liquor.
In his frustration, he accidentally dropped the cider jug, and it broke into hundreds of little glass pieces all over the kitchen floor.
He went to get the broom and found the mice had eaten all the straw off the end of the broom.
Just then the doorbell rang, and an irritated Santa marched to the door, yanked it open, and there stood a little angel with a great big Christmas tree.
The angel said very cheerfully, "Merry Christmas, Santa. Isn't this a lovely day? I have a beautiful tree for you. Where would you like me to stick it?"
And thus began the tradition of the little angel on top of the Christmas tree."

Your radiator heat control valve should be on the inlet....oh and the tree looks nice...  The TRV could be on the flow with the lock shield on the bottom opposite end (TBOE). Supposed to give slightly higher heat output and easier to adjust valve especially for old folks but looks better BBOE i think. Great thread drift!

My cousin's tree. Not sure if that bottle in the middle is Jingle Bell's or Sleigh Bell's ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2019/12/22/7D519BEA-86B8-45D8-A42E-174DD12DF809.jpg)

I didn’t know until a couple of years ago that Phil was so talented. He certainly has never mentioned it and I think John B should commission some of his work for the showroom. Very talented chap.

...The kids became more enthusiastic when they realised they wouldn't have to listen to the Queen's speech, because the Royal Family are German.
Go back far enough and you'll likely find most of us are descended* from the the Saxon immigrants from the post-Roman-withdrawal period of British history. So most of us are "German".  * seemingly the average ethnicity of TM forum contributors is white Anglo-Saxon... perhaps there is a genetic predisposition to certain motor vehicles?
