Ah, it *was* you who got a mention on RadMac this morning!! Breakfast rice pudding sounds very decadent indeed. I'd go for it if I were you!

If you want a few more nightmares, have a look at Flaviu Cernescu's channel on YouTube. Unicycling on top of a 256m chimney? Yup.

Agree 100% - I loved Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series of books but... every character is in my head. I simply don't want to know what some director wanted them to look like (or worse, selectively edit the storyline).

Thank you Maki! I won't be staying up to celebrate but I know I'm more fortunate than many who spent Christmas in hospital. Happy New Year! xx

Thank you! I guess I need to remember that "at my age" I don't shrug things off as easily as I used to. Still, I'm lucky - too many people ended up in hospital with it. Blessings counted.
