‘Twas the Nightcap Before Christmas

Description

Dad suggests a sherry ”To keep us both going”,
in the cosy front room with the firelight glowing …

Then out comes the Baileys. And mum hits the rum. Hours of merriment and a stocking-clad tango later, they drift off to sleep – the living room in disarray, the presents unwrapped and their careful Christmas preparations in ruins. But come morning it seems a mysterious visitor has saved the day …

This tipsy twist on the nation’s favourite festive poem is the perfect gift for harassed parents everywhere.
