Christmas Delivery
£6.00
And Lo in the city of Nazareth, Jo Stork received a last minute delivery request over the Tanoy, one baby boy to some hovel just off the Via Pelagus. As this was on his way home Jo decided this could afford him the opportunity to clock off early on this the 24th December 0000 so took the gig. The instructions on the ticket were clear, follow the star – you cant miss it, it’s enormous, it will guide you to the right hovel, on the way could you drop off some fabric conditioner to some shepherds doing their laundry and then straight on to the drop, no stopping at the “Kings and Camel” for a crafty one – we will be checking the webcam.
And verily, Jo Stork followed the star, which was indeed enormous, managed the conditioner delivery and ploughed on to the dropping point.

Those of you old enough to be Punk Rockers with remember Siouxsie Sioux and her Banshees. Now Victorian Doll’s heads aren’t everyone’s cup of tea but I think she it spookily fab and perfectly illustrates the power of strange things, rather like Siouxsie, I found her at Hemswell antique market. Her outfit today suggests she has also been rifling about in the hat box and by the way, is pictured reclining on a sumtuous crocheted fragment of finest green, her collaged eye mask was borrowed from a short story called Spangled Reverie as featured in the christmas number of Everywoman December 1953.
