New Year's Eve

The week between Christmas Eve and today has flown by (funny how the time goes quicker when you're on holiday)

Still very cold - outside temperature -1.1 degrees centigrade.

Christmas Eve

Its that time of year again.  No more work till next year :).

Go to town for any last minute ideas for presents, then call into the pub for a couple of real ales.

Looking forward to plenty of eating and drinking

Also use the time to catch up listening to the latest CD's in the collection not had a chance to give a good play yet. 

Current outside temperature 5.7 degrees centigrade.

Christmas

It'll soon be the nice long Christmas break. Two more days at work, then thats it till the 5th January.
Looking forward to plenty of eating, drinking, and catching up listening to some CD's.
Got stocked up with plenty of good ales to sample. :)
As usual plenty of rubbish on the TV. Think they save all the %$£% for Christmas.
Anyway it'll be nice not to have to be up early for a week or so.

Mary Had A Little Lamb (Alternative Versions)

Mary had a little lamb,
Her father shot it dead.
Now it goes to school with her,
Between two chunks of bread.

Mary had a little lamb,
Its fleece was white and wispy.
Then it caught Foot and Mouth Disease,
and now it's black and crispy.

Mary had a little lamb.
It ran into a pylon.
10,000 volts went up its arse,
and turned its wool to nylon.

Successful Operation

The CD player section of the Midi HiFi underwent open-case surgery this morning.
A good blast from the can of compressed air, and all is working again.
The cleaning CD was run to give the laser a good clean, and the covers replaced.
Every thing now working again.
