Well it’s that time of the year.
Again.
(he said, accidentally chanelling Phil Connors in Groundhog Day)
I had a cunning plan that I was going to spend Christmas and New Year in the Canary Islands.
Plans change and, owing to circumstances beyond my control, mine was no exception.
So I shall be spending my festive break at home.
- Making lists
- Re-indexing my CDs
- Re-cataloguing my DVDs
- Making plans
- Watching films
It’s the last thing on that list that started me thinking, as I was trundling around Sainsbury’s this morning.
Christmas films.
What I need in my life, I thought to myself, is a list of my top ten Christmas films.
And that’s what I’m going to be working on, as I drive up to the stables, to ride the Vinster, very shortly.
See?
Even when I’m driving the car I’m making lists.
Weirdo, obv.
Obv.
Watching the Queen’s Speech seems to be missing from your list of Christmas activities.
I shall be not watching HMtQ. Not watching the Queen’s Speech is the tradition in my world. Although, it has to be said, what I end up watching in Christmas Day is going to depend on which invitation I accept to Christmas Day Lunch, innit?
