The Winter solstice has solsticed and they sun getting up earlier

THE SUN IS STILL HERE (hopefully it will be around for a few billion WOMADs) YAY!!! YAY!!!!YAY!!!! (Can't see it, mind)

What will you have in your hip flask or flasks?

and........

Don't talk to strangers...unless they're really strange!
Don't write in starlight 'Cause the words may come out real
Don't forget to wear sunblock
Don't cut the red wire
Keep your wellies dry on the inside
Never spit at a camel
Don't be gay (or democratic) in Russia (and don't swear!)
Never boil a kettle - it doesn't bubble as much as water.
Age is only important to cheese and wine and historians
Badgers aren't to blame
Don't let the hamsters nest in your mouth over night
If you take your teeth out at night, remember to get them home by 10.00pm!
Wear red and a large face bush when you're on Winterwatch Unsprung
Have a coffee before you watch a Japanese epic
When all at sea hang onto a floating island
In space no one wants to sneeze
Let your son pay for the curry when he eats more than you do
Vote Hamster
Hug a Beaver!
Don't wave blue lights behind the back of police officer
Wave a flag in front of a stove pipe hat
Vote Bob!
Eurovision is best enjoyed on the WOMAD forum
Twitter power keeps the forum online
I don't get this Euro debt crisis - it's all Greek to me!
Mud is good for the skin
What will be WOMAD 2016 fashion must have wellies?
and

...WOMAD isn't just for the summer it's for life (Always good advice- THE best advice)

Hello..am I here..feels weird ..glad to see you..where's the smiley faces???? :):):):)

Hi Jambo. You need a space between the smilies, eg :):):):)
Unforunately it doesn't seem to support smilies with noses :-)
You can click the smiley icon on the toolbar when you're typing your post and select from there too :)
Annnnnd... with this newfangled edit button you can go into your post and manually fix those smilies! :D

Jambo, all whirly and everything! Look what happens when you're half way round the planet! Hope today much more uplifting, warmer and enjoyable for you. Glad to see you made the leap! :):)

Sindig0, thanks for your help - and well done on reaching the stone below! :):)

Chas, thanks for your help both in getting us all a place to be and personally getting me here! :):)

 

PD, I'd recognise you anywhere - hello! :):)

Oscar sniffing nice kitchen smells! :):)

It'll be nice when we're all here and settled in. I hope Arms and Legs Everywhere and Prue make it in time for Webby Watch! :):)
