That Time of Year and it's Back to Black


I was vaguely tempted with the New Year Decadence Ball night out being held at the Masonic Hall in St Leonards (which I'm now wishing I'd purchased tickets for when I had the opportunity). Characters such as The Lambrini Sisters, The Cad and The Man of Aran are making appearances. I personally loathe Christmas and the New Year nonsense and would be far happier this evening watching Christopher Lee on telly dressed up in his turn of the century Oxford don clobber reading a stack of M. R. James' creepy stories about rather unfortunate paranormal things happening to other people - absolute heaven! There, I've said it, but it's all true! Roll on January 2nd I say. And, no, I don't make any flaming resolutions!

  1. Totally with you. Was meant to be going to a party but OH feeling ill. Secretly slightly pleased I can continue to slob out and knit... Did someone say middle-aged??

  2. Carry On Slobbing with the added bonus, I've just noticed, of Mark Gatiss in Crooked House on the box - wishing you a speedy 'recovery' on the last stoke of midnight!
