Default Is Christmas now over?

Dull and wet with rubbish TV.
Christmas day we got out for a walk, very wet but blue sky.
The kitchen looked as if a bomb had gone off after dinner, dirty pots and pans everywhere.
Looked forward to boxing day evening and watching Liverpool play.

Water butts filling every 2 days, moss will be taking hold I suspect.

oh well, once the new year is over we can look forward to Easter

Happy New Year

Christmas is never over. Apparently they're doing another one same time next year.

Fyi, with the popularity of economy pole dancing clubs, and the general increase in lard levels, there is now a general shortage of good quality scaffolding poles...

Thank you for bringing th European labour market too th table. Maybe if we weren't so busy consuming we could have time to grow our own.
