Various – Last 9 Months on Shuffleplay
Various – Best of Blue Note 50
Various – Milano Jukebox 2011
Various - The Xmas EP
My plan this morning, was to finish off the presents for my side of the family and have my mum over for lunch while Anne watched Hearts (beat Motherwell 2-0)...
But these were thwarted by the breakdown of the photo printing machine at Tesco...
In hindsight this was a good thing...
While it meant cancelling my mum, it also meant heading into town to get the required photos printed there...
But this also allowed me to obtain a few more presents for Annie...
And so, whilst still limping around on one crutch, a good few hours was spent scouring the shops for suitable “stuff” (post having ensured presents for Sheila and Mum were sorted – brother-in-law Andrew’s having already been secured at FOPP yesterday)...
Home on the bus...
Some wrapping and some further present manufacturing on the PC and then, time for “It’s A Wonderful Life” – tears were accompanied by tasty nibbles, a couple of glasses of white wine and Carol Singers at the door...
More present wrapping followed by the last of the current series of “Merlin” and a documentary on Les Dawson – which I abandoned after around 40 minutes to finish off the wrapping...
Presents for Mum and Sheila (amongst other things)...
Put together a new version of the Xmas EP, now adding the Pet Shop Boys song from 2009 to classics by Wizzard, Slade, Greg Lake, Gary Glitter and John Lennon (I will not have Shane McGowan in the house)....
Final act of the day was compiling and burning Anne’s annual “Milano Jukebox” CD – to bed just before midnight, excited like a child...
Highlight of the Day : It was Xmas Eve...
