I like Christmas.
The build up, anyway.
But in my adult life, I have NEVER had a Christmas tree up.

I may need to review my longstanding commitment to the bar of soap. I always see it through until it's miniature, fragmented end. This dedication is, in some respects, admirable, but perhaps I'd be happier introducing new soap bars sooner?

On the bus trying to work out where I would've appeared on the opening credits of the first year of 'Dallas'. The actors were listed alphabetically, so I would've been last, after
Charlene Tilton as Lucy Ewing. Being last would've meant my name being prefaced by 'and'.
I like that.

"How are you, David?" asks a back-up café regular.
That's the fourth time I've had the 'David' this month.
It's been a constant in recent years and I just don't understand how you get 'David' from 'Daniel'.
Emails too.
I've signed off 'Daniel'.
And I still get the 'Hello David' reply.
Irks me.

Which to be fair won't be too different from the expressions later in the day.

Should've been up an hour ago but, electric blanket cranked up to 5, I lost myself in trying to work out which line of Band Aid's 'Feed the World' I would've been best suited to singing.
And could that line have been sung without straying into an American accent, as so many British vocalists do?

Still, at least tonight I'm mumbling in my own accent.

I can't have been alone in being convinced that by listening as much as following the subtitles, I could learn Danish by watching Forbrydelsen/The Killing on BBC Four 'back in the day'
