Hi there.

Well, as usual, we have left the Christmas shopping to the last week. Ahh! The kids are (almost) taken care of, which is the main thing, but there's still a lot of Internet business to get through! The tree is up, although it only has lights and a few decos on it, and the sherry has been breached. Still don't feel that Christmasy though, never usually do these days.

However, just before my visit to Worcestershire last week, we had our Christmas Party at work, the theme being Heroes and Villains. I have to admit, our compnay far exceeded any other in the dress up stakes. We had a Mrs Incredible, three priates, Lizzie Bennet & Mr Darcy, Dick Whittington, Batgirl, Bonnie & Clyde and even a Darth Vader! The best outfit of the night was, however, someon who cam as Superted. Kudos. Hubster and I went as Mulder and Scully (see below) complete with badges (e-bay) and old 90s mobile phone. I even got a small gold cross from Argos for £7.49.

Hubster is back off again after just getting back from a gruelling week of timezone shifting but is back on 23rd. He has finally managed toget to Vegas, but ashe only had 10 hours there in which to sleep, didn't see a thing! Shame, although I've heard that one or two nights is enough ;). 

So - a slow dull week at work, I expect, awaits for us all until the holiday mood kicks in.

Merry Christmas everyone!
