Y.O.P. 025 Merry Christmas

-340

There seems to be a bit of an exodus round here for the holidays so I thought I would post this before ye all head off.
This year the card was made using Inkscape and Gimp, both open source software.

"Here's to a long life and a merry one.
A quick death and an easy one.
A pretty girl and an honest one.
A cold pint-- and another one!"



Hope ye all have a great Christmas!

Hey sprogger. Finally got round to catching up on your blog. The YOP is a great idea, favourites so far are:
Knockmoy Abbey 003
Kip 021
The abandoned cottage 023

And I like the card, has a Nightmare Before Christmas feel :up:

Le gach dea-ghui i gcomhair na nollag agus na h-ath bhliana. :cheers:

Thanks all :cheers:
Momable the verse is not my work, just one of these old sayings that have been knocking round forever.

Hi micky-E
you just finish catching up and I in my near infinite capacity for being inconsiderate post another one :D
I`m sure at some of the inspiration came from that very film, well spotted :smile:
And a happy new year to you too.

I shall raise a glass to you all over the christmas wine

No worries sprogger. My watch list is like painting the Golden Gate bridge. By the time I get to the end, it's time to start over again at the "beginning".
