The French For Funny Penguin Deaths Is Noelle

What Frank was doing up at half nine in the morning on his holiday, is a mystery to me. But, for some unknown reason, he didn't trust me to do my duty and decided he had to post up this weeks funny cartoon. Fair enough, it meant I could go back to sleep because, seemingly, I've got a sniff of Christmas coming and my body has gone into holiday mode. I no longer seem to appreciate the need to work.

Imagine having to take the penguins for a walk. Apparently, courtesy of Death, because, as we all now know, Death loves Penguins.

I suppose that, in Frank's absense, I should do a short piece on the development of The First Noel However, the only thing I really have to say is that it wasn't until I'd gone through two different ideas for the cartoon, that I found out what Noel actually made (it's French for Christmas, apparently). It was then that I realised I should actually go check up the the lyrics for it. Which is what led to this incarnation. There was some dispute (between the various warring factions in my head) about whether it should be Noel or Noelle. Frank stepped in and decided it should be Noelle and he was absolutely right.
