It’s in the trees , it’s coming!

 

Out of the forest a giant figure looms in the dusk.
                                                            It’s in the trees it’s coming…



The villagers flee from the giant unaware that he was entranced by the Carol singing and wanted to join in. He can’t work out why why the people are running away…


The street urchins step up to the plate and throw snowballs at the giant…

 The giant retreats into the trees bewildered but keen to find another choir to join elsewhere. The street urchins are fêted by the villagers and it’s mulled wine all round!

  2. The choir lost out on a wonderful bass to join in! He even brought his own hymnal too…what a shame!

  4. Maybe the villagers were scared as they had seen the recent Norwegian movie Troll on Netflix?

  6. Just as well the urchins chased him off, he could have tripped over the lampost that someone has carelessly left lying about and hurt himself.
