![Title panel:
The Art of Christmas Party Conversation - by ANGEL.
[Scene is a SILENT, STARRY HILLSIDE in Biblical times. Three shepherds are having a quiet chat as their sheep calmly chew the grass. This scene repeats unchanged apart from the gentle movements of the Shepherds chatting, for several panels. Then suddenly a MASSIVE, CHEESY, WHITE-TOOTHED ANGEL appears above them saying "HELLLOOOO"]
ANGEL:
HELLLOOOO
SHEPHERS:
ARGH
ANGEL [Talking 'to camera]:
Christmas is such a social time - here's some top tips for making sparkling conversation!
1.
Use body language to convey approachability.
[The giant angel, hovering in the air, cheerfully flaps his massive wings at the terrified shepherds]
FLAP FLAP FLAP
2.
Start with a gentle icebreaker to put people at ease
[The giant angel looms over the terrified shepherds bellowing]:
DO NOT BE AFRAAAAAID
3.
Avoid 'Angelsplaining': Always introduce topics of conversation by asking interested, open questions.
[The Angel shoves his massive, cheery face into the terrified Shepherds' personal space and bellows]:
SEEN ANY GOOD BABIES LATELY?
4.
If there's a lull in the conversation, try summoning the Company of the Heavenly Host.
[The bAngel summons thousands more angels, filling the sky with sublime, terrifying fire as they all sing]:
GLOOOOORY TO GOD
[The Heavenly Host all disappear. There is an awkward silent pause, the Shepherds now cowering on the floor, quietly weeping.]
ANGEL:
So do you like sheep?
SHEPHERDS:
*sob*

I've got a few days off, so I'm easing into Christmas with a documentary on the festive season by one of Britain's foremost historians.

I bought this dress yesterday in a charity shop. Wasn't originally going to as I just wanted to try it on but I ended up buying it anyway. It's a bit funky in a 60s way and has sleeves. Not sure the pattern works for me though. Not my usual look. Thoughts?

Ready or Not 2 looks interesting. I liked the first one and it did have a decent conclusion to it so this feels unnecessary however SMG has now entered the chat...
