Up early once again - no wonder I am so knackered in the evenings but I can't help this inability to return to sleep once I awake...

Really, really enjoyed the Gentle Giant DVD of their BBC Sight and Sound In Concert from January 1978...

What a brilliant band they were...

Once Anne arose, it was time for the annual "Dr Who" Xmas special...

One of the best I can recall - I think this must be the sixth of these since the programme was resurrected...

"Madagascar 2" also entertained as did the Xmas "Outnumbered"...

Anne enjoyed "Downton Abbey" and "Great Expectations" and The Little Shop of Stuff" (I think - a Dickens spoof)...

So, much of the day spent in front of the box...

Made a first stab at compiling a list of my favourite CDs of the year - failed...

Ended the day with some splendid sounds of, and reading about, the Mighty Crim...



So, a day of nothing much, sandwiched between Gentle Giant and King Crimson...

A typical Xmas holiday day in fact...

Highlight of the Day : A Gentle Giant experience relived...
