Duff's computer. Just after his wife found him today

Satirist on The Spoof, Duff, has today revealed himself to be a sad git because when the rest of the world is celebrating with their loved ones, Duff is hunched up over a computer writing what he believes to be amusing articles.

Speaking from his hovel he told himself:

"Well where would we be if we all stopped for Christmas? I'm making a stand and refusing to be sucked into the hype. If you ask me Scrooge had it right. Christmas? Bah humbug!"

Spoof editor, Mark Lowton, is concerned about the situation and fears that Duff may well attempt to submit a bill for triple time for stories he files on Christmas Day, either that or The Spoof will be taken to court over imposing draconian working conditions and onerous contracts. He Commented:

"Duff can do whatever he likes but he's not getting so much as one penny more than normal rates"

Duff will continue to write articles today until his wife grabs him and tells him to help with getting the Christmas lunch ready and to "Get off that bloody computer!"

Merry Christmas all.
