Of course, I don't really, but my penchant for using song lyrics as blog posts is too powerful to override, even in the interests of good musical taste and simple common sense.
Just a quick post to say that I hope everyone had a great Christmas. Here's a bullet pointed summary of mine:
- Church on Christmas day was great, though a tad cramped as we had to meet in someone's front room! Still, a good service, and a good chance to celebrate the real business behind Christmas.
- Bacon and egg sandwiches for Christmas lunch. Get in. We did, of course, have a proper roast for Christmas tea.
- Visiting friends from church on Christmas day and boxing day and chilling. Nice.
- Having the in laws round in the latter part of the week, including a full scale invasion of our house yesterday by both of our families including my grandma. We had a buffet type lunch and a good catch up and did all the present exchanging stuff and whatnot.
- Present wise I got, among other things, a power drill (MORE POWER! ARR ARR ARR!), a digibox, some trousers and more biscuits than I can be bothered to count. I can only assume from the latter that my reputation as a biscuit dunking fanatic is well established.
- We went out for a bit of sale shopping today and got a food processor worth £100 for £45. Now, obviously I have little to no idea why we need a food processor when we already have a food mixer, two things which I shall refer to as blenders as I can't think of any other names for them, and two juicers which I can only reliably tell apart because I know that one is only for citrus fruit. I imagine this is much the same situation Alison finds herself in when she is forced to consider that I have two computers running four different operating systems, and have a drawer full of miscellaneous computer parts just waiting to be put to use. Still, as far as the food processor goes I'm sure there'll be some nice food in it for me, so it's all good.
- Finally, we have no plans for New Year, and may well end up staying in and entertaining ourselves.
That's about it really. Best get off the 'net now. Cursed dial up and it's pennies per minute.
