Foreword

Dear Readers,

The 1980s had a lot of adventures and Christmas spirit. I was talking to Donald the other day, about the time he had a tarpaulin stuck in his tender. I told him he better behave because he's included in a lot of these stories. These include the time Toby took . . .

You better read the stories for yourself.

Sincerely,

The Author
