Pinch, punch, first of the month and a heavy frost!

Pinch, punch, first of the month, no return rabbit - it's December.  And not only is it December, it is only 24 days until Santy Claws visits with all our presents!   Yipee!

And as if by magic, we woke up to a heavy frost this morning.  Both Bill and Phoebe love this colder weather (both being polar bears) and they have started drooling at the thought of some fresh seal to eat - not sure where they are going to get fresh seals in Hertfordshire but perhaps the supermarkets sell seal in batter or seal fillets.

Talking of seals, we spotted "haddock loins" in the supermarket.  Now I thought that loins were part of your legs, and the last time I looked at a haddock it didn't have any legs.  So, either haddocks have tiny legs and even tinier loins, or we need to phone the Standards people about misleading advertising.  Has anyone ever eaten haddock loins, and how many do you need to fill a fat little bear's tummy?
