hmmmm.......it's not as nice as summer, or spring come to think of it, or autumn.

biting winds that ambush you when you pop your head out of the door, weeks of rubbish christmas television, not so much as a parking spot near any built up area for days up to christmas, carol singers, recording artists that you really like putting out christmas albums, endless really depressing charity appeals in newspapers and on the tv, inevitable news stories about the rescue of some idiot who has gone moutain climbing in a blizzard...

However they always show Casablanca at Christmas and I like that - its on Channel 5 on Christmas day. Play it again Sam. Arrest the usual suspects. We'll always have Paris. unfortunately I've got a gig, so I'll miss it.
