Yep, that time of year again.

The rules are simple (ish)

Revise the normal 12 Days of Christmas song with the following guidelines:

- Make is SFW.

- Must be baiting related.

- Has to include the word 'mongeese'....just because I'm quirky like that.

PM entries to me, and a winner will be announced 23 December and go into effect 1 January.

Winner gets a Premium Membership and orange name (or chooses someone else). No plagiarizing or resubmitting of last year's entries.

Short notice, I know, but submissions won't be considered after 17 December.

edited to clarify.

Thanks

One based of the "Twelve Days of Christmas" I think, as it is "the" Christmas song.

Oh, and the plural is mongooses. Mongoose is derived from an India word, and has no connection with our word "goose".

Yes, mongooses is correct. I, however, prefer mongeese. Very Happy

@HaveFaith - I think we were supposed to change the lyrics to baiting related items such as : 1 kgs gold dust 2 RSOT etc. etc. etc. but not actually have the lads singing or signs or any of that... Hope that helps...... Very Happy

EDIT: Left out the crucial Not in sentence.... Embarassed

^^^

All we are meant to do is change the words to the 12 Days of Christmas carol to make it baiting related and include the word mongeese somewhere.

We don't have to get lads singing it.

My mind may be going a little soft, but what is SFW? I looked at all the replies and nobody else asked it so I am fairly certain that it is obvious what it means. Oh well, maybe I've gone senile.

Tthat's a bit vague as we're all in different time zones.

I'm guessing that it's the last place (time zone) to see Dec 17th-probably somewhere in the middle of the Pacific. Very Happy
