Christmas and New Year, Stuston and Plymouth - December 1991

Nosher goes round to Geoff and Brenda's for a toga party, then there's a trip to Stuston Church for the Christmas carol gig. Shortly afterwards, it looks like a trip down to Devon for Christmas day, and then back to the Swan for New Year's Eve. Christmas day in Devon is memorable for the Calor gas tank in the garden that fuels the heating and the cooker had run out on Christmas morning. Luckily, Nosher was still in touch with university chum Anglela's parents who live 30 miles away near Totnes. So in a panic, Nosher and Mike head over to borrow an electric cooker that happened to be lying around in their cowshed, and we get it back and strap it in to the fuse-board with a couple of lengths of 2.5mm twin-and-earth. And so is saved Christmas dinner. The following day, the gas dudes arrive and fill up the tank, thus also saving the heating.
