It’s now Christmas Day and quiet in this house
Nothing is stirring, not even a mouse
The kettle is on and Brennig makes tea
He’ll go to the bathroom, it’s time for a… shave.
The lights are so festive, they’re bright and they’re gay
The presents sit waiting, well-wrapped (in a way)
Sophie lies sleeping, she sucks on her thumb
Soon Brennig will slide in and cuddle her… back.
I really suck at poetry. 🙂
And as for the title of this post.. no, last night we didn’t watch It’s a Wonderful Life, we cuddled up on the sofa and watched Love Actually. And I still think Richard Curtis is a curse inflicted upon this planet to dissuade anyone with ambitions of becoming a writer, because he really is very, very good.
However…
I noticed a massive continuity error in Love Actually last night. It’s so massive that it has made Mr Curtis a mere mortal in my eyes. Lord knows how I’ve never noticed it before!
Yes, you’re still very, very good. But now I know you make mistakes. And that, Richard, is the best – and most inspirational – Christmas present you could have given me.
Merry Christmas everybody!

Merry Christmas to Brennig and Soph!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m a bit pished…and it’s only 12.47….no lunch yet, just lots of bubbly and gins. No finer pair of socks has a lady ever received…they’re stripey and I think made of cashmere…chillblains are history. Hoorah! I’m off for a refill. Enjoy and have a good trip away, my lovelies.
Mya and pissed up family (excluding Sprog who is merely manically fuelled on sugar in its varying guises.)
I like the new theme very much! Congratulations and Merry Christmas to you

Seasonal greeting from deepest, darkest Wells-Next-The-Sea.. where my super 3G broadband dongle is just managing to scrape by with an EDGE signal (a BONO signal is available further up the coast).
THINK I like the new theme.. not completely sure yet. A change is as good… and all that. Though, I see you’ve reneged on yourself and brought Sitemeter back – or did it not quite disappear in the first place?
Have fun on your break-away, wherever it is. Bring me back a stick of rock, please.
Mya, you alcoholic reprobate! 🙂 Soph and I wish you the very best of everything. And for the record… we’ve hardly touched a drop all over the festive season!
froggywoogie, thanks. Nice to see you around!
Masher, ooooh! Wells-next-the-Sea? That’s where all the happening raves erm, happen isn’t it? Hope you and yours are happy in the Christmas billet! Theme: It will take a little time for me to make a few minor adjustments to it, but that bbc.news problem you had with the old (unwidgeted one) should have gone away with this one. I’m still off Sitemeter, but I had to copy in a string of code from the old template. It’ll get edited out when I’ get the space. 🙂
