Dtc Christmas Carols

Found this posted by DTC in 2012. How many are still around - some I recognise, some not.

Hark the baffled ABers sing
"Glory to the LieInKing!
Wine on Food and Drink, NoMercy mild
R and S is reconciled"
Joyful, all ye Women rise
Using ummmm’s one line replies
With the ABer host proclaim:
"Ed is living in Kettering"
Hark! The baffled ABers sing
"Glory to the LieInKing!"

Ed by the multitude adored
Ed the everlasting Gnome!
Late as always behold Him come
Banana and a yellow broom
Hats in red the Gnomehead see
Hail his ingenuity
With ABers that peacefully dwell
Venator, the Papal Manual
Hark! The baffled ABers sing
"Glory to Suspending!"

Hail the field-born Princes of Fleece!
Hail the Sqad of Righteousness!
Cures and banter to all He brings
Ibuprofen in His wings
Mild our Coven, their antics famed
Born that man may be maimed
Born to chase the Goats on earth
Born to give Excelsior worth
Hark! The baffled ABers sing
"Glory to, err, LieInKing!"

Come, Desire of AB nations, come,
Fix in us Thy Answerbank;
Rise, AB gal's conquering Seed,
Bruise in them the Trollish hedge.
Now display thy saving power,
Ruined threads now Owd restored;
Now in mystic union join
Thine to ours, and ours to Thine.
Hark! the Baffled ABers sing,
"Glory to the reborn Ed!"

Then there was the old Christmas Card Jigsaw.

A quick read shows, I think, one banished and one sadly no longer with us.

[albaqwerty]

one is sorely missed.

another is no longer an ab'er - maybe banned?

[Mamyalynne]

Ah yes Cap'n I missed Owd - almost five years since he dies.

[Mamyalynne]

^ died

[Mamyalynne]

There were 25 carols that year.

[Captain2]

No! can't believe it is 5 years; what a sense of humour and will-to-live he had.

[Mamyalynne]

He certainly did, an inspirational guy.
