We have a tree. We are watching Hawkeye. All right, I’m feeling a bit more festive now

Welcome to my parents’ house. Just put a jumper on
Welcome to my parents' houses. At my dad's there's a cupboard full of disposable BBQs, and many VHS tapes in cases which look like leather-bound books. At my mum's house every flat surface has a candle on it and there's between 5 and 8 of everything in the fridge. The heating is on. Always. x
Welcome to my parents’ house. I’m not allowed to touch anything because “you do break things Daniel”. It’s the temperature of the sun. You get a 3hour discourse on how wonderful my sister is. You’re asked if you want a sherry every 40minutes

Last time I did jury service I swore an affirmation rather than swear on the bible, I presume that was also “committing blasphemy by betraying the British people”

Mr F has gone to get a Christmas tree and while I like it when it’s up and decorated, the whole process that leads thereto fills me with the same ughhhhh as washing my hair, or changing the bedding. Love the result, hate the prep

With the tumescent resurgence of seasonal perfume ads, I am reminded that quite a lot of people wear truly awful perfume that they don’t actually like, but buy it (or are bought it) just for the brand, or the pretty bottle, or because “it’s expensive so it must be good”, and not FOR THE ACTUAL SMELL

She’s back again. I am still happy to undergo all those terrible sexy clothes in exotic locations to spare her the effort, and I wouldn’t even want paying
That perfume ad where Natalie Portman prances around several glorious locations in expensive clothes clearly having a whale of a time, then says to camera “and you… what would YOU do for love?”
None of that looks like hard work, Natalie, frankly I’d do it for free

Anyway the upshot of this is that I am having what I want for dinner, which will be grilled chicken in Thai red curry paste and tzatziki wrapped in a garlic paratha, for the full insane frankencultural frankencuisine

Possibly a beer too

Mr F at his work Christmas do, which differs MARKEDLY from mine in that “jackets are required for gentlemen” and he was asked to choose wines, whereas mine was in a pub that does nice food and I lost my cracker present under a dog

It's that time of the year again, so once again I offer up my thanks and sympathies to everyone working in retail, this week and next. May you be blessed with kindly, smart, and above all, speedy customers, who get what they want and sod off.

As the wet chill draws in, I remember a couple of weeks ago in Sainsbury’s, where my card payment got rejected twice because my hands were so cold my phone decided my fingerprint was either dead or not human

I was torn because CAN there be a bad version of Feliz Navidad, but the answer is of course “yes if sung by disco Germans” (disclaimer: I love disco and Germans, but COME ON)

I love Wikipedia, because it has just introduced me to the lightly revolting concept of the “licked finish” painting

Had my first mince pie of the year! Also a triple shot latte. So, swings and roundabouts, mood-wise. Let’s see what the day brings
