It has been an awful long while since I wrote
anything for you, for a variety of reasons which I mostly forget; probably
because they were along the lines of ‘Don’t really feel like it at the moment –
too busy – do it later’. That and there
is a problem with the internet at our house which may-or-may-not simply be
something to do with us not paying the bill. And we have been busy. Honest. I’m about to write all about just so you
can see.
Well, I’m about to write about one bit. If I
wrote about all of it you might not finish before tomorrow. You know what I’m
like; I start writing something that took five minutes in reality and should consume
no more than a paragraph, and somewhere along the line it turns into a page or
three and in reading devourers a few hours. So. Baby steps.
This is what I started writing on December 14th,
and never quite finished until now.
You’re all probably thinking of turkeys and
roasts and eating Christmas cookies/cakes/it-contains-sugar-things people have
made, pulling out the woolly hats and gloves, worrying about frost and hoping
for snow. I’m having a ridiculously sweet coco ron (Hot coco) in a small 20p
cup, deciding I want sticky rice and chicken with as much sweet chilli sauce as
I can handle instead of a Subway and lamenting anytime the weather dips below
20˚.
