Walking Moose on a leash in the snow is an absolute nightmare. An excited dog who likes to run between each patch of new snow and nuzzle all the snowflakes is cute, but when they weigh 100lbs and do it? That’s a workout.

So it turns out that corporate style partying basically means the last days of Rome. When lawyers go, they REALLY go! I had such a wonderful time and I’m SO happy I joined this firm! Also, Toronto continues to be horrible and it still smells of piss (sorry Toronto but your city is gross.)
All dolled up and ready to party, corporate style!

About to head out to Toronto (ew!) for my work Christmas do. I couldn’t fully enjoy it last year as I was still so new and felt I had to impress everyone. This year I’m going to have fun with my friends! Can’t wait!

Just delightful!

Although I do still want an all-Muppets ‘Knives Out’ with Daniel Craig as the only human.

It’s that time again, comrades! Good luck and I’ll see you in Whamhalla. (I have my office Christmas party on Friday; if I survive that, I reckon I’m golden!)

Pro-Tip: When someone asks you a question at work that you don’t immediately know the answer to, don’t do an Eric Cantona to stall for thinking time to get to the answer (“when the seagulls follow the trawler…”) It confuses people, apparently.

I don’t know why my algorithm decided to show me so many videos of throat singing but I’m here for it. It’s so impressive. If I tried that, my larynx would collapse in on itself.

I was asked why I wanted to learn fiddle and I’m now thinking I should have made up some romantic story about legacy and heritage or whatever…..but the truth is I wanted to learn since I was a kid and saw The Muppets doing a version of ‘The Devil Went Down To Georgia’ and I was OBSESSED with it.

And just so I’m not the *only* idiot in my Belle & Sebastian story, Belle is a Great Pyrenees and Moose is a Bernese Mountain Dog. So no, they don’t look alike, actually! They’re both just hefty dogs with goofy grins.

Walking with my dog and my neighbour (who is also British) is making a fuss of him and asks me if I remember Belle & Sebastian. I say “sure” and mumble something about The Boy With The Arab Strap while I look confused as to why she randomly asked me about a Scottish indie band from the ‘90s….

So from what I can see thus far, people are not enjoying the second instalment of ‘Wicked’ because *checks notes* it’s not the exact same film as the first instalment of ‘Wicked’.

Do you not know how storytelling works? This is just like Marvel fans who want EVERY Marvel project to be ‘Endgame’.

This is you annual reminder that we don’t need to descend into a moral panic any time we discuss ‘Fairytale of New York’. Just change the lyrics - have fun with it! In our house we sing “you scumbag, you maggot, you’ve taped over ‘Taggart’”.

MORE Eurovision/Taskmaster crossover, please! Sam Ryder on the New Year’s Treat this year is great but Daði in the regular show would be fantastic! (I know he isn’t *technically* a comedian, but neither was Osman and he worked out great.)

If you have men of a certain age in your life, get ‘The Book’ for them for Christmas. It’s my husband’s birthday today (who is the least bookish person I’ve ever met, and yet requested this gift) and after he opened it, he spent ages fascinated by a chapter on dirigibles. It’s a BEAUTIFUL work.

I don’t know a damn thing about Pokémon cards but my new favourite thing is watching videos of vendors at fairs give free cards to little kids. It’s so cute and there’s SO many of them! Card collecting seems like a really kind, charming space.

Poor Moose had to go straight from doggy daycare to the bathtub because he was absolutely caked in mud. Such highs to terrible lows…he looked so betrayed!

Today I received assurance for roughly the ten thousandth time that I would “absolutely love” Gilmore Girls. Generally, I avoid things that people tell me I’ll love (because that’s how I ended up buying and reading The DaVinci Code…I don’t want to talk about it,) but should I give it a go this time?

Someone who isn’t deterred by the snow is Moose, who is having such a great time frolicking and sticking his face in the ground that he’s refusing to poop.

I regret to announce that the snow has arrived. Now follows sixth months of me being a moody so-and-so.

Apologies in advance to my son but I’ve seen that clip of David Sillito meeting Paddington so many times (and cried on quite a few watches) that the next time we’re in London, I’ll be dragging him to see that show whether he want to or not. Beautiful!
