I've just eaten the first satsuma of the season. Happy Christmas everyone.
I've also bought a chocolate roulade cake for my sister and nephew when they visit tomorrow.

I know for a fact that I can leave it untouched till their arrival. Ok I had a piece but only because I really fancied some and not because I had to have some.

The amount of willpower I can muster sometimes scares me. I think I must be a genetic experiment gone wrong and then secretly given up for adoption.

Season's greetings, ma'am.
I'm leaving work now.

Have a marvellous weekend.

I love satsumas
I'm avoiding anything remotely festive until I go home for Christmas.

I just dug out the bottle of last year's Advocaat so it's time for a manly pint of Snowball - quickly followed by the realisation that it is rather vile and the bottle goes back for another year and the cycle continues.

"This Christmas... The Priests invite you to join them..."
Well, voice-over on an advert for a Priests album, I think you're hilarious, especially considering what was all over the news yesterday. I won't be taking up their invitation. Perverts!

Aaa, The Priests.
I thought it was a pisstake when I first saw the ads. Then one of the ladies I go dancing with spent half an hour telling me how exciting it was that her niece was being married by one of them as he's their P.P.
