So now we’re into Twenty Twelve,
the Tree’s been put away;
There’s wrapping paper everywhere,
the house in disarray!
I’d stay to help with tidying -
but don’t know where things stow;
and anyway, I’m due on Shift
so really ought to go.
It’s a time for RESOLUTIONS
(in my life I’ve made a lot)
but by the end of Hogmanay
most are long forgot!!
A Museum Resolution
that should not go adrift!! –
is “Try your best to be on time
when you relieve a shift”!!
I wish you all “a Good New Year”,
with lots of Tourists in,
We’re fresh from too much food and drink,
so let the year begin!!
