Long one.
I've booked my teams Christmas meal. Fuck me, it's a free feed why so many opinions about where to go?

alright Jefferino?
Free feeds need to be somewhere with good food is all.

Ours is at a Hilton.

Convenient for the station then
We had an xmas do there many years ago. There were about 6 seperate parties going on and a huge fight broke out in one of them. Food flying everywhere, mottled women scrapping on the floor, fat polyester-shirted geezers smacking each other with chairs etc. - hellfire!

Not too bad, really. Up at 0800. Read local paper. Walked dog. Did dishes. Looked at interwebby thingy. Ate lunch. Walked dog. Did mother's shopping. Got text saying Comet had 70% off everything. Went to Comet. Utter shite.
Set coal fire. Peeled some tatties. Watched news. Lit fire. Gammon steak and boiled tatties and peas. Watching Rick Stein Mediterranean thingummy and keeping an eye on here.
It's all go, really. I don't know how my heart manages the excitement

I'm 44 tomorrow. I suppose I care about this enough to say it but I don't feel middle-aged, which I unquestionably am.

Happy birthday when it comes, TD.
Still young, you are.

So I'll wish you happy birthday now:

KERCHIEF

In the morning
folded with its wild flowers
washed and ironed
it takes up little space in the drawer.

Shaking it open
she ties it round her head.

In the evening she pulls it off
and lets it fall
still knotted to the floor.

On a cotton scarf
among printed flowers
a working day
has written its dream.

One of my friends with kids
just posted a picture. Apparently his daughter (who is about 2) thought that perhaps it was a bear that had sneaked to the fuse box and turned off all the lights. He told her that if that were true there would be evidence.

So he's spilled flour over the flour by the cupboard and made bear prints in it.
