Two things by people called Dave today:

Our friend Dave Walker draws cartoons, but has so many things on the go - CartoonChurch.com, CyclingCartoons.com, not to mention his own site.

And as well as doing his own Advent Calendar of Cartoons (web link, Facebook link) he has drawn a Christmas cartoon for Greenpeace's Save The Arctic campaign:




Dave Hopwood is a Christian writer and speaker, particularly focusing on faith and film. His website is at http://davehopwood.com/

Here is his poem, "The First Day Of Christmas":

On the first day of Christmas all this was sent to me:
Twelve hours of travelling, 
Eleven room refusals, 
Ten smelly stables, 
Nine months pregnant. 
Eight hours of labour - 
Seven animals watching, 
Six o’clock birth 
Five minutes peace. 
Four shepherds, 
Three wise men, 
Two startled doves, 
And a baby to set the world free.

Made it! Hope you enjoyed all of our pictures, stories and videos this year. There's lots we didn't manage to fit in, like (Dave Walker  https://cartoonchurch.com/ ) (V&A Christmas Tree by Anna Lomax https://www.vam.ac.uk/event/wkwjeoDARmw/christmas-tree-installation-2024 ) What if Bach wrote Last Christmas? If you are on the socials over the next few days, check out the hashtags #DuvetKnowItsChristmas #XmasWithTheInlaws #AdamsCooking on Twitter and Bluesky. And we'll see you again next year. Lots of love!
