The eve of the Xmas, very often best day of the year...

Spent probably a little too long today writing up the notes re preparing the Anthology for launch on Bandcamp...

Reference was made to many historical recordings...

The art shelf was sorted into height order...

In hindsight, I kind of liked it more higgeldy piggeldy...

A tasty breakfast at home...



In the afternoon, took some pics to post up re saying "Merry Xmas"...

This was the best of the bunch but...

...required some, ahem, treatment, pre-publishing...

This proved to be the last photo taken with the trusty Sony camera...

Seconds later it inadvertantly fell from my grasp and crashed onto the coffee table, dying the death of a camera - which all my cameras over the years have done...

Godammit...

So reverted to the Samsung bridge for the rest of the day...

A lasagne was prepared...

...and put into the oven...

...while I mucked about and was of little assistance, quaffing champagne and gin...

It's Xmas!

"Elf" was watched and enjoyed (yes I know that's not it on the screen yet)...

Lasagne, alchohol, nuts and crisps were all enjoyed...

Looking at something nice on the other sofa was enjoyed...

The cats were in attendance...

A "Taskmaster", an Xmas "University Challenge", during which we were declared to be "on fire", Michael McIntyre" and "Not Going Out" all also entertained...

And some late on relaxing was done...

Into tomorrow...

Highlight of the Day : It was Xmas Eve...
