    DONKEY’S STORY
    Well what a journey! Here I am packed high with luggage and then poor
    Mary. Oh how tired she is and I have had to carry her all the way and
    she is pregnant. The traffic jams are terrible, worse than going to
    Portrush on a Bank Holiday Monday. Donkeys nose to tail, literally.
    Joseph tried to find somewhere to stay but he hadn’t booked ahead.
    Doh!! Here we are in the middle of a census and he didn’t book ahead,
    he could at least have used Lastminute.com.

    So here we are - baby on the way, and no place to lay our heads? Poor
    Mary can’t go on much longer, the baby is coming. It is a strange night –
    hey are we nearly there yet? (walks off) (from offstage) Well are we
    nearly there yet? Stable!! we are staying in a stable – what do you think
    I am – a donkey???
    THE CAMELS’ STORY

    CAMEL 1: (haughty voice) Twinkle twinkle little star how I wonder what
    you are!

    CAMEL 2: What you are? Indeed, that’s a good question, when our
    masters said we would follow the star to see the new born
    King, I thought they had finally lost their marbles!! Follow a
    star, but the sky is full of them!!!

    CAMEL 1: But follow that star we did, even I could see it and I normally
    have sand in my eyes!!

    CAMEL 2: That star was soooooo bright it was like the light of day. It
    was a long journey, but when we arrived at the palace to find
    the King, he wasn’t there! Very strange not to find the King
    at the palace?

    CAMEL 1: That King seemed so nice, wanting to meet the new King
    himself!! Sweet!!

    CAMEL 2: (getting upset) Well, what a shock we were in for- the star
    had stopped over a – a – a, (can’t bring himself to say it)

    CAMEL 1: ---STABLE, spit it out, no maybe you shouldn’t!!

    CAMEL 2: Yes one of those places – we Camels are above all that, I
    don’t do stables. I thought this star would have led us to a
    beautiful Palace – hey you don’t think we followed the wrong
    star do you??
    (they start to wander off together the rest of the dialogue is said offstage)

    CAMEL 2: Maybe we need to go and have a better look at those


    stars??

    CAMEL 1: I know, stable just can’t be right – back to the star charts for
    them I think!!
    SHEEP’S STORY

    Well, what a night, there I was minding my own business, trying to have
    a doze, busy day ahead of me, when BOOM someone turned the lights
    on and what a noise, well actually it was kinda special in an other worldly
    sort of way.

    The sky was lit up like a Christmas tree and there were so many people
    singing, it was like watching X factor, only better!!! I was amazed – they
    said we weren’t to be afraid, though all the men were hiding behind us
    sheep!!! Then they told us to visit the King who was born –WOW – so
    off we go! Must hurry and keep up or I might get left behind. Don’t want
    to miss seeing the new King – wonder what his palace will be like??

    (Wanders off and the rest is said off stage)

    Stable!!!! A stable we’re going to a stable, there must be some mistake


    – all those angels, for a stable birth??? I don’t believe it!!! (Victor
    Meldrew style)
