As we enter 2023, here’s a New Year message from the Goons.
Wal: Now that Mr Claus has delivered his presents and is taking a well-earned rest, I am reliably informed that The Goon Show Preservation Society would like to wish a Happy New Year and custard to all their readers.
Neddie: That’s it Wal, give them the old posh chat there.
Grytpype: I say Neddie, what’s your New Year’s resolution?
Neddie: To be an all round better person.
Bluebottle: But you’re already all round! Hehehe!
Moriarty: Get that child out of here!

Neddie: What did you get for Christmas, little spotty lad?
Bluebottle: Well a few years ago my mum bought me an electric twit for Christmas, but there was a stick of dynamite in it and it blew me backwards…
Eccles: For Christmas?
Bluebottle: No, out of my underpants!
Neddie: Oh, nasty!
Bluebottle: Anyway, this year I wrote to Santa and asked him for world peace and goodwill to all men.
Eccles: And what did you get?
Bluebottle: I got a sock full of custard and a clip round the ear from my mum!
Eccles: I got a clip round the ear from Sabrina.
Bluebottle: Why was that, you naughty man?
Eccles: She turned round too quickly!
Bloodnok: They don’t make ‘em like that anymore!
Wal: If you’ve just landed on this page and are wondering what on earth is going on, then I am empowered to remind you that this IS The Goon Show Preservation Society and you get what you pay for! So… join today!
FX: Kerching. Penny in mug.
Mate: And a very Happy New Year and all mate.
Wal: Ta. Next dance please.
