Christmas short story in the Scotsman 20th December 2014: Do They Know it's Christmas?


You can read the short story here written by Linda and illustrated by Cate.  
Set in Edinburgh’s Sick Kids, this heart-warming seasonal tale tells of a hospital cleaner’s interest in the Ebola crisis, a seemingly lonely young girl, and the connections his kindness enables.

We are Three Camels










Rather belatedly here's myself, Noah and Hannah at the Sick Kids Carols for Christmas after performing the poem we composed together. Here's the first verse:


We are three camels               (L N H)

one-humped animals      (L N H)

looking after three wise chaps        (L)

who didn’t even bring a map   (N)

they’ve got frankincense         (L)

but no common sense                     (N)

they’ve got myrrh and gold     (L)

but I’m getting cold                  (H)

We’re wandering, wondering where we are    (L)

and why they didn’t come by car     (N)

Is it very far?                   (H)
