I've just finished my annual Christmas card run so I thought now would be as good a time as any to deliver yours, too.
Plus of course, a lot of you bugger off over the holidays and have fun with your friends and families instead of staying home alone and moaning about having no life, like all good bloggers should.
So …
Happy Christmas to all in Blogville, with love from Old Dive.
Click on it, print it off and put it on your mantelpiece to offend your relatives.And here are my previous two years' Christmas cards in case anyone missed them or wants to be offended all over again.
Christmas 2006
Christmas, 2007Plus this … I just love this.

OH THANK YOU DIVE!!! Hahahaha! I love the serene look on their faces while they show the boy how to stomp a snake whilst naked. Everyone should have this useful training, though I think he would have rather had the baby Jesus' lemon!
I'm not leaving computerville until Christmas eve so hopefully I can at least reciprocate a little something to you and the others. Merry Christmas to you and Phil and Mum B! I'm glad to have met you this year! You are truly one of a kind!! xo
Merry Christmas, Shan!
And to Jamey and the boys, too!
I know you'll all have a marvellous time.
And you know how glad I am that we met, too. Your guidance is really appreciated. As is your forbearance, of course! Hee hee.
xo
merry christmas and a happy new year...where's my birthday present? :D
xoxoxoxo
(10 days until. . .)
Hope seeing your first Nativity
shown in the Greatest Museuum of Art!
O.K with Shan's comment about the serene look on their faces.
Lucky find and well done text.
Thank you Dive.You are an Artist.
It's here waiting for you to collect it, Savannah.
Merry Christmas and a happy new year to you and the MITM and the whole tribe.
xoxoxoxo
Hee hee. Thank you, Anonymous!
And a very happy Christmas to you!
Brilliant, as I expected. I hope my sister doesn't say that to me about the rubber snake I bought her 5-year old son for Christmas. Ok, just kidding. Among other things I got him a huge Lego spaceship thing which I know he'll love.
I hope you enjoyed your Christmas card run; I wish I could ply you with tea and cakes and such in thanks for this blogger card of yours! Alas, that will have to wait until next year when I'll ply you with French coffee and odd-flavored macarons. I'm right there with Shan is saying that I'm thrilled to have met you this year (both in Blogville and in person). Lucky, lucky me! I look forward to lots more antics in the new year!!
Wow! A rubber snake AND a huge Lego spaceship! It's not just five year olds who'd love those, Katie, it's fifty year olds, too! What a lucky guy!
I have to thank you for your totally excellent cards, too. I wish I could ply you with tea and cakes as well (cake or death? … Oooh, cake, please).
As for French coffee and odd-flavoured macarons, I cannot wait! Bring on 2009!
And believe me when I say I am the lucky one and the thrilled one for having met you. What a great time we had! Paris will be so much fun.
And one day you'll get to walk my old legs off up and down the hills of San Francisco. Woohoo!
A very merry Christmas to you, Katie, and to Cynthia and Lupine Lady and all your family.
I'm very glad, too, that Katie met you, Dive. I've really enjoyed your ranting blogs and the cooking ones, too, not to mention your excellent postings of Katie's trip to London. You're some wacky guy.
I hope you have a fabulous Christmas--fried squid for dinner? Thanks for your good wishes. We're off to Paris for Christmas.
And a happy new year to all.
OMG.....you are terrific! My favorite is still that dinosaur. Some day my kids will be old enough that I can share it with them. I can't wait.
Does Santa punish the naughty girls,dive? and if he does how does he?
Fuck is such a beautiful word! Thanks for the hilarious holiday card. I didn't send out any yet. I might send an "end of the year" newsletter. I've been so darned busy. I might get to post on my own blog someday.
Thanks Dive for all your fun rants, rackets and cheer throughout the year!
And a merry Christmas to you, too, Dive. Katie and I will just hang out for a couple days, eating whatever's easy. Glad to have met you (and your mum, too) through Katie and your hysterical blogs. You're good for the morning's laugh! Thanks!!
Hi, Lupine Lady!
Wow! Paris at Christmas!
You can try some of Katie's infamous chocolate and fois gras macarons, you lucky lady.
Thank you for putting up with me and merry Christmas to you!
Katherine: I'm glad you liked it. Oh, my. That's a tough decision: when to let your kids see that swearing is fun. Hee hee. Good luck!
Rich: I'm glad you picked up on that exceedingly dodgy photo. I've prepared a post for you today that might explain it.
Neetzy: I'm not sure about beautiful, but it certainly is a useful expletive and has excellent comic potential, too.
A newsletter post would be great. Go for it!
Good morning, Cynthia!
Merry Christmas to you! Of course it will be very merry with Katie in attendance. You are both very lucky to be able to enjoy one another's company without these pesky 8,000 miles that I have to cope with.
I'm so lucky I stopped by today. You have impeccable taste. These cards are all fab, but the creepiest is the last one. Santa, stop! Eeuw. Brilliantly horrible.
Merry Christmas, Dive!
Merry Christmas Dive. Hope you've got yourself some mistletoe QRx
Hi, Petrea! You're looking wonderfully festive today.
That last one is truly creepy and today I've posted an even creepier song to go with it.
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas, Rose!
Mistletoe? Ha! I've not been kissed since the early Cretacious period so there's no chance of that!
Good Photoshopping Dive as ever!
Why thank you, young lady.
I'm sorry I couldn't be here yesterday—what fun, and extremely irreverent. hee hee
Nice work on the dinosaur photo, adding that Christmas card font for your greeting.
Hi, Robyn: coming from a Jedi Master of Photoshop such as yourself that is praise indeed. Thank you.
I really like those cards. They are timeless classics.
Thank you, Mark. Timeless yet kind of sweary.
I did put the lemon one up on mum's mantelpiece a couple of years back and nobody - not even the snouty old aunts - noticed it.
Merry Christmas to you too dearest Dive and thank you for the cards! I think that this year's is rather neat.
We'll be around throughout the holiday season if you should keep blogging away. MB seems to be having a blogging holiday at the moment but he's frantically busy at work during the day and doing his share of Christmas drinks with his friends in the evenings so perhaps that explains it????
I always make time over the holidays to blog. I have to get away from everyone, so I take myself serenely away to "go pay some bills" in the office and then I go a-blogging.
Merry Christmas, Mme (and MB and all the furry guys and feathery guys of course).
Ah! I had wondered where he'd gone. As long as he's enjoying himself that's okay.
xx
Maria: I'm glad to hear it. At least I'll have something good to read at Christmas.
