Holiday
Here Comes Santa's Clause. Top Story - November 2024.
Making a list? Checking it twice? Old Saint Nick has sent a memo to several social media platforms wanting acknowledgement. Apparently he has updated his To Do and Not To Do lists. It's obvious he is hooked on updating his image, reshaping his game and considering shaving his beard of all things. Of course there's more to every story and I have been shovelled the task of investigating his identity crisis. Like I have nothing better to do than catch a flight up to the North Pole with two lame knees and a peanut allergy.

Weekend
The weekend holds an extraordinary spot in the hearts of individuals worldwide. It's something beyond a respite from the toil of day-to-day existence; a social and profound foundation that addresses rest, revival, and opportunity. Whether you're hoping to unwind, invest energy with friends and family, or set out on undertakings, the end of the week fills in as a haven where you can zero in on the main thing. The Beginning of the End of the week The idea of an "end of the week" is generally current. Most social orders had little qualification between days for work and days for rest. The possibility of a two-day long weekend started to come to fruition during the Modern Upheaval in the nineteenth 100 years. As laborers in plants and businesses worked unendingly, work developments battled for more limited working hours and assigned days off.

Silent is the Night. Top Story - November 2024. Content Warning.
This is a tough time of year. It's been so long since his last feeding, and worse, he still has several weeks to wait. They stretch in front of him, yawning wide and black with needle-teeth of hunger pains. The weather turns, and the cold deepens. The night dark pulls in, squeezing the daylight hours like a fat man pulling in his belly to edge through a tight space. These things only sharpen his appetite even further. The coloured lights strung up all over town are switched on. Their cheery twinkle is reflected in every pair of eyes, both innocent and cynical. Another reminder of how close (and how far!) he is from satisfying his hunger. He glares at them. His bowlful of jelly grumbles. Ahh the little tots, they are so soft and warm in his lap! The scent of them rises up from those adorable heads, with their curls, their mops, their pigtails and braids. He breathes it in and savours it, the buttery sweet smell of them. His hands twitch, how badly he wants to crush and twist, and slurp and chew and crunch... Their screams, just as delicious, a fine accompaniment to wash it all down.
