Up early, updating yesterday, creating the podcast, posting it up...

Does anyone listen?

Who knows?

Probably not...

Out under the moon...


Christmas Eve...

Is this the best day of the year?


Last minute gift buying on a bitterly cold and stormy day...



In amongst said present provision, a couple of things partaken of for me - Biffy Clyro's 2013 2CD set (which would fit easily on one CD but hey ho) and, for just one and a half of your English pounds, a Hollies album from 1971...

It contains both sides of a favourite single of mine from the time, "Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress / Cable Car" - so, I figured, worth it just for that...

Home and finally opened the Bailey's Irish Cream I received 364 days ago...

The end of "Borgen" watched and enjoyed...

And the final, tear-jerking scenes of on-the-TV-this-year "It's a Wonderful Life"...

Then, present wrapping...


Ripping and listening to new acquisitions and compiling Anne's annual best of the year CD - I'm sure she won't even recognise most of the tracks...

Meanwhile, Anne was putting together a very tasty indeed prawn and chorizo spaghetti...

Mmm, mmm...


Even Meg the Black Cat knows Christmas is coming...


...or at least that there's a fillet of fish in the microwave...

The Exec Producer was wearing her special jersey...


It didn't...

The final episode of "Last Tango in Halifax" and a Dara O'Briain show from Edinburgh a couple of years ago both enjoyed along with a behind the scenes documentary on "The IT Crowd" and it was time for bed...

The night vision goggles picked up the Meerkat guarding the presents for tomorrow...


Merry Xmas!

Highlight of the Day : Yummy spaghetti...
