It has almost become something of a tradition
this side of the rallying border, that a certain J Bunnet Esq issues his own festive
statement to the nation just like the politicians and the Queen's speech on
Christmas Day - that's Queen Liz by the way, not Queen Nic!
The tradition was no doubt started by said parsimonious
personage to save the cost of stamps (13 shillings in real money for 1st
class these days!) so here below is Jaggy's comment on the year past and his
hopes and wishes for the future. And if
you haven't yet got a Christmas card from him, this is it.

Even’s Town, a quaint hamlet in McRaeshire, home of the Laird of MacHanical
Mayhem himself, J Bunnet Esq ))
An Ode ... Season's Greetings and Festive Felicitations
Things looked grim at start of year
Our sport was under threat
Queen Nic from Holyrood was on our case
Upon us, a civil servant she did set
The M.S.A. was called to act
Plus many helping hands
Car clubs and foresters all pitched in
To meet the Queen’s demands
The sport for sure has turned around
But not every one agrees
Some say the fun has gone for good
In order to appease
Now that the work has been completed
Old practices used no more
Dispensation has been granted
Allowing rally cars to roar
The future still remains uncertain
We must practice what’s been preached
Remaining always safe and vigilant
Or Queen Nic will have us beached
Our thanks to all for efforts made
And the staff of M.S.A.
( Those fellows of MacScrooge Academy
as they are better known by the way)
So think of all those good samaritans
At this Christmas and New Year time
Without their efforts and our goodwill
This could have been the end of the line
So let’s leave the final words
As stated in a film anew
By my Star Wars pal Smokeybaccy
“May the forests be
with you!”
Wishing all of youse awrabest, from all at Castle Bunnet
