Nearly Christmas

It’s the last Bank Holiday before... err... Christmas. So expect those decorations to be up soon. Unless you live in Rochdale of course, where they went up last week. It’s ok though because the lights will be used to celebrate other festivals too, starting in three weeks time with Eid. Of course what part Santa has to play in marking the end of Ramadan I’m not sure but then what do I know.



I have a lazy day while L goes to the Gym, which was a surprise because we had no idea that Nottingham opened any of its gyms on a bank holiday but apparently the Tennis Centre has been doing so for some time. They’d just kept it quiet. Good job really, L said it was packed.

I thought the BBC might redeem themselves as they promised highlights of Reading on the interactive service for the next five nights but this turned out to be one band a day, showing around eight songs, looping endlessly. Noooo. Thank God for those internet highlights.
