The Blackcountry Man

The Three Wise Men and thier Camels....

Now finding three wise men in Brierley Hill was almost as difficult as finding a Virgin, but the angels did and guess what, they all looked like me, what a coincidence.
These wise men followed a star in the heavens to a lowly stable deep in the Heart of the Black Country, where else?
They travelled far and were at the end of their tether when the star stopped in the heavens and rested over the Stable (Summer House).
Now these Magi as they were known, were named Melchior (Played by Mr BM), Caspar (played by Mr BM) and Balthasar (also Played by Mr BM).
They carried gifts for the little Baby, Gold (Scratchings), Frankincense (Grorty Pudding) and Myrrh (Pigs Trotters), (look, this is a Black Country Nativity) from the four corners of the Black Country.
They asked the Inn keeper if the baby had been born, to which he replied at the top of his voice, "Not Yet", "your too early, do you never learn, we have done this three times and your still too early".
The head wise man asked "Where has all this sheep S???, Poo come from"
"You don?t really want me to answer that do you?" replied the Inn Keeper.
"I really think you need to come back in a few days time when I think there will be some good news about the baby" said the Inn Keeper.

At that the wise men mounted their camels, "Camel, What Camels" shouted Mrs BM, "a flock of sheep and now we have Camels", "what does everyone think this is a Zoo".

At that the wise men beat a hasty retreat across the wastelands of Brierley Hill in search of a flock of sheep and a bunch of Shepherds.

Now if you all listen Quietly you may here some baby crying just about midnight.
