Right, I'm off out in a moment so I thought I'd share a few snippets of the daily grind.
1. It's getting cold and windy. This is better than cold and wet and definately better than cold and snowy.
2. I've been directing the Y5/6 Christmas performance. It's a Karmic revenge for my uncontrolled mirth when I found out that Listmaker would have to direct a school performance in the spring. I have grumpy Angels who shove each other all over the stage, shepherds who blissfully ignore everything that goes on around them, the campest roman soldiers you'll see this side of the West End and an absentee Joseph which leaves single mum Mary toting the lil baby Jesus all over ancient Palestine in search of an inn. Oh, did I mention the Inkeepers? They sing the opening number and reject the pleas of the Holy Mother in search of a resting place. They relish their singing and their rejection of Mary. Everyone ignores the lil baby Jesus as they compete to be the most singingest/dancingest members of the cast. The Three Wise Men are superb. Looking at the stage it's clear that all the talent is on the right and all the animals are on the left. The Angels are still grumpy and shovey.
3. Bollards have been erected in my access road. I thought this was the work of a neighbour but have since discovered that the County Council have done this. I will post in much greater detail on this matter.
4. I've discovered the joy of internet library use. You log in, search the catalogue and in a few days an email appears which tells you your selection has been delivered to your local branch! All for 55p a reservation. Coolio!

Do your shepherds have fake burberry hats?
One of them is dressed as a scheming Russian oil baron/Premiership Chairman, another is a Texan businessman/Global statesman and the third is an Elvis impersonator. Make of this what you will.
sorry, that was the three wise men.
You are trying to make me redundant, aren't you? You and your online library use. Pshaw.
