Three Wise Men!

Monday.

Advent Calendar.

The Nativity scene featuring Posh and Becks and the Beckham baby at Madame Tussaud's in London has been closed off from public view. Not because Madame Tussaud's management was influenced by the uproar that it caused but because someone attacked it.

A spokeswoman said: "There was some damage caused to the figures of David and Victoria by a member of the public. The figures have been removed and the scene has been closed." She could not confirm the extent of the damage.

It now seems that severe damage was caused - "The attacker waited until other visitors had left the area and charged at the figures, kicking and punching them in a frenzied attack. The face on the Victoria model was damaged most but her husband's was also severely crushed before the man fled into the street.

The other seven waxworks in the display, which include Hugh Grant, Samuel L Jackson and Graham Norton as shepherds and Kylie Minogue as an angel on all fours, were not damaged."

Senior church leaders have criticised the nativity scene, which also features Tony Blair, the Duke of Edinburgh and US President George Bush as the three wise men, and Kylie Minogue as the Angel.

Just got a comment from a guy in the UK. He reckons I'd feel at home in his local. Offered to buy me a drink if I ever got to Penn. I don't think he means Pennsylvania - pity because they've got some fine beers there. Perhaps Penn - Uk was founded by someone from Pennsylvania.

Sent me a link too http://pennbeer.blogspot.com/
