We got a great Christmas present as my daughter and I got tickets for the Uncanny fear of the dark live show!

My dad wasn't well today so my mum and I did the cooking today. The turkey turned out very tasty. Traditional dinner as that's what they all like. A really lovely day today.

Good morning Happy Christmas! Up at 7 this year which wasn't too bad.

Fat Bottomed Santa has almost finished his festive duties. Looks like he's hitting the sauce.

Thought I'd left all the books we got for C at home. Thankfully they were in another box.

Entry for #duvetknowitschristmas from Antarctica: the Wasa station was established in 1989. And it looks like the very soft and high quality bed linen has been there since basically then. Here is my sleeping bunk. Tak Sverige!

Loving the festive #SewingBee it’s all fun and games until you sew the gap in your bag closed.

Unbelievably, #DuvetKnowItsChristmas generates such good will on social media that over the years we've raised somewhere approaching a quarter of a million quid for homeless charities. If you can spare a bob or two, sling some to Centrepoint, and here's the link: www.gofundme.com/f/duvet-know...

A lovely cold clear day out there. Went for a walk with the dog. Found a perfect little Christmas tree in the lane where snow is most definitely not glistening.

Tomorrow evening it’ll be my annual duty to vaguely shepherd the activity on the #duvetknowitschristmas hashtag and urge people to give small sums to charity. 7.30pm? Something like that?

Parents & anyone else up early on Christmas morning: there’s a bright pass of the International Space Station over the UK, just after 6.15.

Well, I say it’s the ISS. Could be Santa heading home…

Remember when every leader wanted their picture taken with Greta? She is still that truth teller, they just can't face the truth of their crimes.
Greta Thunberg arrested for holding a sign opposing genocide.

When peaceful protest is a crime, democracy is in deep trouble.

Happening under a Labour Government.

While I normally focus on AI deepfake pornography, there's an under-discussed AI-gen harm that's particularly prevalent during the holidays: AI product scams.

We counted down the top 10 holiday scams to look out for this year (check out the video), but here are some extra highlights below

there’s a woman across the aisle on the bus crocheting a pocket onto a cardigan *that she’s wearing*, incredible, a thing of beauty

Started a Roisin Meaney Christmas book. Have discovered her wonderful writing this year and this is the third book by her I’m reading. Might start the jigsaw too and then it’s really Christmas.

At my parents house and I had my yarn and new book delivered there. This Is Knit is a wonderful Irish yarn shop. The Laine book has so many lovely patterns in it.
