patentdragonThe whole process of Christmas started with lunch yesterday (and very nice it was too), and reaches its bloated conclusion in... oh, about an hour. So, let's see what the highlights were:-
- No grief, hassle, or soul-flaying inner misery... Hooray! Relaxed and painless, just the way I like it.
- Doctor Who - "The Next Doctor"... Fun, with "well, I never expected THAT" finale. For once, the "second chance" actually works! Roll on Planet Of The Dead (due at Easter, I suspect).
- The new Wallace And Grommit... bugger, missed it. Thoroughly enjoyed Curse Of The Were-Rabbit, though.
Coming Next... Recovery Day. I suspect I'll be having a serious lie-in.
*** Update *** Oh, here's one of the best laughs of the year. The Arch-Bishop of Canterbury issues his "Christmas message", and when talking about the "economic downturn" - better known to the rest of us as "Gordistair's colossal fuck-up" - he comes up with this nugget...
Errr, excuse me - aren't magical solutions what your entire belief system is built around? Loaves and fishes from nowhere, seas parting, women becoming magically pregnant - eternal life in paradise after you die...?
And don't get me started about that foul Nazi troll in Rome...

"In the months ahead, it will mean in our own country asking repeatedly what is demanded of us locally to care for those who bear the heaviest burdens in the wake of our economic crisis, without waiting for the magical solution, let alone the return of the good times."
