Santa You´re Much Too Fat
Santa Claus You Are Much Too Fat
I heard a reindeer hoof,
then Santa dressed in red,
Came crashing through the roof
and landed on my bed.
I thought it was a dream,
but quickly did I wake,
As soon as I heard Santa scream,
"I want a piece of cake!"
I heard a reindeer hoof,
then Santa dress
Came crashing through the roof
and landed on my bed.
I thought it was a dream,
but quickly did I wake,
As soon as I heard Santa scream,
"I want a piece of cake!"
[Chorus]
Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
you are much too fat;
I was sleeping peacefully
but not my bed is flat. Oh!
Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
how much do you weigh?
I'm glad I'm not a reindeer
that has to pull your sleigh!
He got up off the floor
and said, "How do you do?"
I said, "My back is sor
my head is black and blue."
"So sorry!" he replied,
and then he ask
He offer
"No, thank you just the same!"
[Chorus]
Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
you are much too fat;
I was sleeping peacefully
but not my bed is flat. Oh!
Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
how much do you weigh?
I'm glad I'm not a reindeer
Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
you are much too fat;
I was sleeping peacefully
but not my bed is flat. Oh!
Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
how much do you weigh?
I'm glad I'm not a reindeer
that has to pull your sleigh!
I heard a "ho, ho, ho,"
the sleigh was in the sky.
But it was moving slow
and wasn't very high.
It wobbled in the air,
I hoped it wouldn't fall;
Said Santa, chewing cookies,
"Merry Christmas, one and all!"
the sleigh was in the sky.
But it was moving slow
and wasn't very high.
It wobbled in the air,
I hoped it wouldn't fall;
Said Santa, chewing cookies,
"Merry Christmas, one and all!"
[Chorus]
Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
you are much too fat;
I was sleeping peacefully
but not my bed is flat. Oh!
Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
how much do you weigh?
Oh, Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
you are much too fat;
I was sleeping peacefully
but not my bed is flat. Oh!
Santa Claus, Santa Claus,
how much do you weigh?
I'm glad I'm not a reindeer
that has to pull your sleigh!
that has to pull your sleigh!
Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ho

Hercules in Dorset (England)? The Cerne Abbas Geoglyph
The Cerne Abbas giant is a chalk hillside figure or geoglyph of uncertain origins known as "The Giant" or "The Cerne Giant".
The Cerne Abbas Giant is located just outside the small village of Cerne Abbas in Dorset, about 48 kilometres west of Bournemouth and 26 kilometres north of Weymouth. The figure is about 55 metres (180 ft) high and 51 metres (167 ft) wide. It is carved into the white chalk rock.
One of the principal ideas concerning the age of the giant and who he could represent, is that he is from the time of the Roman occupation of Britain, because he looks like the Roman god Hercules.
A 1996 study discovered that originally the figure had a cloak or cape in his left arm, which was corroborated in 2008.
The cloak or robe could be an animal skin, giving credibility to the theory that he was hunter, or alternatively Hercules with the skin of the Nemean lion over his arm.

Hercules is the divine protector of humankind the god of athletes and the guardian of the gates of Olympia,
Athena his sister helped him when he had to work on the 12 labours.
He was 7 feet tall or 2,13 meters tall, carried a club of olive tree, was an expert in the bow and arrow and dressed with the skin of the Nemea´s lion which was impenetrable!
There is a constellation, the fifth largest, that honors him:
During July, look for the pattern of stars representing the famous strongman of mythology practically directly overhead by around 10 or 11 P.M.

The Gift of Athena to Greece
Discover the Greek Gods
At the top of the Acropolis in Athens (Greece), is an olive tree that is a symbol of reverence and gratitude to the goddess Athena, founder of the city
The legend says, that Zeus proposed a contest between Athena and Poseidon for the possession of Athens. Poseidon raised up his trident, smashed it upon the hard rock of the Acropolis and out a salt spring sprang.
Athena produced an olive tree, with its branches full of fruits. This event between the two powerful gods was immortalized in stone, on the West pediment sculptures of the Parthenon.
Athenians chose Athena’s gift: the leaves were used to crown the heads of victorious athletes, generals and kings, the wood used to construct houses and boats, as fuel to lamps and it was applied to the skin of Olympic athletes.
A Temple to Athena Polias (‘of the city’) was built c.525BC housing a cult statue inside made from olive wood and a reserved area created for Athena’s sacred olive tree.

Villajoyosa (Alicante, Spain): Historical Summary
The city of Villajoyosa had its first settlers in the bronze age. The hill where the old town is was an ancient Iberian settlement.
.jpg)
The city "Alone", "Allon" or "Alonis" obtained the title of Municipium from the Roman emperor Vespasiano in 74 A.D interestingly there were only 10 roman cities in the Valencian Community.
From the time of Emperor Nero´s rule and between the years 64-68 A.D, is the "Bou Ferrer" a Roman merchant ship wrecked off the coast of Villajoyosa. It was a 30 m trade sailboat carrying about 2500 amphorae produced pottery, each containing about forty liters of liquid fish sauce produced from anchovy, mackerel and horse mackerel guts called "garum". It probably carried olive oil and "mulsum" a spiced wine for the sailors´ daily use.
The amphoras were placed between olive vine shoots for protection during transport. The ship carried also 12 ingots of lead weighting each 64 kg with the countermark "Imperor Germanic Augustus"
In the centre of the town a bath house was also discovered as well as the remains of a military camp were a Cohort (500 roman soldiers) lived during the Sertorian Wars (Roman civil wars) in 75 B.C, during which, Iberians and Romans fought together.

It is in the II century A.D during the Roman occupation that the "Hercules Tower" was built in what was then the Hispania Tarraconensis. Originally it was crowned by a pyramidium.
Evidence of this occupation are found in the Tossal, Mosque and Necropolis (burial site or cemetery) of l´Almisserà, Foietes d´Alt and Alfarella.
In 1.300 Bernardo de Sarria, the Admiral of James II of Aragon founded la "Vila Nova Cristiana" with the strategic objective of controlling the coast against the Islamic attacks.
In 1443 Villajoyosa got the privilege of a real city.
During the sixteenth century Villajoyosa played an important role in the defense of the coast against the numerous attacks by Berber pirates and corsairs like "Khayr ad-Din Barbarus" "Barbarossa Hayreddin Pasha" known as Barbarroja.
For this reason King Philip II ordered the construction of new walls around the city. The "Asunción church" dating from the XVI century, is one of the three fortress-churches of the Province of Alicante, built in a Gothic-Levantine style.
As part of the defensive system there were guard towers along the coast and many in the countryside like the "Xarco" tower.
In the late seventeenth century, pirates stopped attacking, permitting urban growth outside the fortified walls.
Around this time started growing the 1400 year old Monumental Tree known as "Olivera Grossa" It´s 7,50 meters high, it has a trunk perimeter of 1,30mts around the base and a tree crown diameter of 11,50.
During the 19th century due to trade relations with Ecuador and Venezuela, cocoa and the chocolate industry became very importance for Villajoyosa.
In 1911 Alfonso XIII gave it the title of city.

Olive Oil Extraction
People have used olive presses since Greeks first began pressing olives over 5,000 years ago with Roman olive presses existing up to the present time.
An olive press works by applying pressure to olive paste to separate the liquid oil and vegetation water from the solid material. The oil and vegetation water are then separated.
An olive mill and an olive press dating from Roman times
First the olives are ground into an olive paste using large millstones at an oil mill. The olive paste generally stays under the stones for 30‑40 minutes.
Watch how olive oil is made at Finca Morote, in the traditional way
The weight put on the olive paste that is in the basket, extracts both the oil and the water
The oil will float over the surface of the water and then will be decanted or separated
Make your own homemade olive oil!
