Insomnia and ultra-convenient e-commerce. Such a combination.

Having nothing else to do with myself at 3am, have bought gifts for all my family online. Hurrah! Some people may be interested to know that Amazon sell Bagpuss singing mice for only £15.98 a pair...

misread that as 'Bagpuss singing mince' which is quite a disturbing thought..

eeg.Thanks for that.

digging this up as - bar making my stepmum a hotwater bottle holder (don't ask - she genuinely will love it, it's the best idea either my sis or I have come up with in years) ....

I'VE FINISHED.....

Woo-hah. Am actually pleased with all the pressies; not bad going considering my budget is piddling.

And apparently going for big christmas pub antics tonight...

Ok, yeah, and did buy myself a couple of books in the Oxfam bookshop.... guilty...

It's too late baby, now it's too late
Though we really did(n't) try to make it...

Have just sent tons of e-cards in a feeble attempt to breed the illusion back in Scotland that I haven't just forgotten them all. He knows if you've been bad or good too, or so I hear. That's me fucked then.

Well. it's Winter Solstice (and a happy one to you all) and I got two presents today; a book on the runes and 'feminine powers' which is already a good read. And my four year old niece brought me a model from 'The Thing' - an alien morphing into a human. Pretty good going, I would say!

Well today I spent 3 1/2 hrs travelling to sing in a carol concert, and I'm about to decorate the christmas tree.

But I actually feel as festive as a small dried fig lost down the back of a sofa in 1996 and covered in dust and cat hair ... so no I'm not christmas prepared at all.

Well, I've got the present shopping done, but have words of warning for anyone contemplating DVD player purchase: ALWAYS suss out what cables you'll need to get, other than the one that comes with it. Sixty fucking dollars later, and I'm not a happy boy.
