After about an hour of heavy snoring, Wilson stirred.
'Is it Xmas Eve yet?' he asked, testily.
'Not quite,' I replied, but as he reached for the gin bottle I continued, 'How would you like your brother Byron to come over for Xmas?'
W immediately brightened, asking, 'Could he stay for Xmas Day, and have Father Xmas bring him presents and everything?'
I nodded.
'That,' he replied, 'would be totes Ace – can I phone him now and invite him?'
I think hibernation has been successfully deferred for another year…
