A jolly Cripmas 'Ouch!'

An entire Cripmas section over at Ouch! What else would you expect from the folks over at that BBC website who bring us the Crippled Monkey weblog?

"Ouch's festive extravaganza" includes:

* A crippled Christmas Carol" ("With apologies to Charles Dickens, Ouch presents our Christmas story for 2005 - the tale of a poor, pathetic, disablified boy called Tiny Tim who, after a night when he is visited by two very spooky ghosts, finally sees the error of his ways. The story features some fantastic pictures that you can also use as e-cards");

* "disabled celebs tell us what they hope to find in their stocking";

* The Disability Christmas Party Guest List (very pun-ny);

* "The story of what happened when Santa's reindeer fell ill";

* 12 Days of Disability Christmas

* Christmas Movie Challenge ("Test yourself on disability in some favourite festive flicks");

* disability-friendly Christmas shopping;

* Cripple Cocktails ("tantalising disability-themed cocktails!")

and still more....
