The angels are not drunk. Angels cannot be influenced by alcohol.

They can, however, become INTENSELY cross with dim shepherds and thicker-than-several-boards ovine creatures.

So watch it.

Honestly. What ARE you alleged angels thinking? What a disgusting spectacle.

(Gathers idiot shepherds back together, ditto Angelic Host, leads in the Big Messiah Scene. Has another drink.)

AHA!!!Bitch fight!

Here are these poor shepherds out in the cold with their lovely and thoughtful sheep. I - er, we bring a little cheer into their lives and it's second degree burns all round!

Look at these sweet, generous, talking sheep. I'm sorry for the jokes about kebabs and BBQs. Here's a lovely box with a bow for those bells. I'll help you gather them up.

I've seen a few angels who, if they were not drunk, were sure putting on a good show of it.

Sheep are smarter than shepherds, thank you very much. We just don't choose to show it that often.

I can believe that, because it's hard to believe that ANYthing could be thicker than these shepherds.

Of course, if you lot could manage to toilet-train yourselves, it would be ever so much more convincing. Give it some thought, would you?

I'm not um, drunk. Angelic being, spiritual essence, all that sort of thing.

No, don't wave that thing at me, Angel 6. Unless you want to join me in the mud-wrestling pit, outside my pub, of course.

Wakes up

Hey, what's going on around here? I had this awful dream where Jerry Falwell accused me of being gay just because I was purple ...

Looks around to see two angels wrestling and pulling their wings off each other. Sees shepards, sheep, and fallen angels scattered over a scorched piece of ground.

I need a drink!

Grabs the last bottle of Black Sheep.

We are definitely much smarter than the shepherds, but it's rather difficult to express it when limited to "baa", staring, eating, sleeping, and other limited natural functions. We do the best with what we are given.

Oh.my.God.

I just looked at the Programme. Tomorrow is Scene 10: Shepherds visit.

How on earth is that scene ever going to happen. They rarely show up, much less together. and they're pretty useless even then. And looking at them now, tomorrow night they'll still be seriously hungover.

(Angel 3 has Angel 6 in a chokehold. Angel 6 is trying to bite one of Angel 3's wings off. Each thinks they are winning.)

Pax,Angel 6. I know you've got your mouth full - just nod. That's the way!

(They disengage. Angel 3 and Angel 6 click their fingers. Instantly both are healed of their injuries and restored to their former radiance.)

Can't make choir practice, tonight, sweetie. The sheep are veritable ovine geniuses, but someone has to watch over the flocks by night. Can I interest you in some 30 year old Armagnac?

Biting? You think, Angel 3, that we would ever bite someone who didn't deserve it? Please give us a little credit. Beneath our stupid sheep brains visible to the ordinary world, we are....

(Angel 3 settles down on a rock with Angel 6. In an companiable way, they share the Armagnac and watch the Revenge of the Sheep. Soon the dawn will be breaking. Who knows what the new day will bring?)

Finds another spare purple cloak lying around, and throws it on Spare Shepard.

[Snigger] Let's dress all of you in purple, now. Hahahahahahahaha. [Killing me] [Devil]

In Rudolph's frenzy, thinks about the Black Angel and purple clad Fallen Angel and Stage Manager. Considers joining them on the dark side. Wonders if Rudolph himself may be evil.

Then ponders if a creature without a soul can be truly evil or good. While pondering the theological and moral ramifications of this statement:

Rudolph falls asleep.

Having finished playing scrabble with an extra down the back of the pub, (ie Rowen, my life partner has come home from work), I can now re-enter the fray... However all the other shepherds seem to be dead drunk or something. And the sheep are all over the place. How typically not middle- class, my dear Chief Shepherd! How unlike me!

Anyway, seeing all these folk are unable to have a class debate with me again, I'll nip next door to Starbucks and buy an eggnogg latte... much to Chief's horror! Ha ha!!

Then I'll buy some trendy newspaper and read up on the current news... I understand Herod's tetchy again. There's a bunch of men travelling around somewhere; stars are shining even more brightly than before, and the hotels are full up this season.

And then I'll go to the butchers for some lamb chops or something.

Finally back to the pub... Chief will never know my middle-class roots are showing!

The last time I checked I was Rowen- really!

Enters stage right, dragging large and interesting-looking shopping bags. Spots what Rudolph the Purple Sheep has done to the shepherds. Bless. I have a protege.

Staggers up to nearest snoring shepherd. Dumps shopping. Taps shepherd on forehead.


Ahem. Babies. Bethlehem. Remember?

Shouldn't you be packing??

If you spend the adoration sleeping it off in a field, upstairs is NOT going to be happy.

This calls for a barn dance I think. And you sheep can jingle all those bells along as well - we'll need them too!

(will get in the write up if i die trying!)
Meanwhile, the smallest angel (who can't fly as fast as the others) has been on a round-the-world trip to gather lots of people from every contry in the world to come and adore the new born king...unfortuantly, she couldn't find any apart from a couple of kids "playing" with a cat...so she came alone...and, at last caught up with the others...
So are you shepards going then?
Can you huryy up about it, you only have about 2 hours 'til the scene ends!
I'll lend you my wings if you want!?!

Black Angel is /not/ going to be upstaged by an over-grown toddler in a frilly white nighty.

I warned you. I told you there would be doom and gloom and untold suffering and torment. But ohhh no. You went with that 'Fear Not' line and decided to throw a party. With dips.

Now I ask you? Is that the right way to greet the news of the birth of the Son of God and his evil twin?

If you don't get your butts into gear and get down to that stable pronto, then *you* can explain it to the management.

Glares at the sheep And that goes double for you.

*sighs at the Black Angel*

Look, they'll be fine. As long as they start moving by midday, they'll get to the stable in plenty of time for tonight's adoration scene.

And it'll give the BVM a chance to catch up on her beauty sleep too. She was looking somewhat ragged around the edges last time I checked. That Evil Lavinia's doing her no good at all.

*lightbulb moment, complete with appropriate glow*

I know! Why don't you go take care of the evil one. I'm sure you two will have so much in common....

Look, they'll be fine. As long as they start moving by midday, they'll get to the stable in plenty of time for tonight's adoration scene.
*wails* But they've got to pack. And sort their outfits. And do their hair. And here they are just lying around all smelly. In stripes.

They haven't even washed their socks.

Look shepherds, I suggest you tidy yourselves up a bit before tonight. And you won't find anyone there before 8pm anyway - Mary has gone Christmas shopping with the twins, and Joseph is having a flutter on the Decapolis Derby.

Why don't you sort out some entertainment? A Barbershop Quartet song or something? Maybe one of you could tap-dance. Or, better still, juggle - babies love juggling.

Well where's that fairy godmother when you need her? We don't need a cinderella type thing here, but a bit of bibbity bobbeting on those rather ragged looking shepherds wouldn't go amiss.

Will you feel any better if I drum for you too?

Or practise asking what can I give him- give my heart......
You'd like to see that, wouldn't you, dearie?

Or, shut up, and eat an old vegemite sandwhich...

BTW, I had my hair cut and coloured at the salon next to Starbucks, so I am all ready for the Great Visit.
