I think this year will be an easy year to navigate compared to what's to come. We'll all be lighting fires to keep warm this time next year.

I've just come from a client whose son is ill with a high temperature. I suggested they stick him in the living room and put the clothes dryer by him.
Don't put off until tomorrow, what you can put off until the day after.

Good to hear that compassionate tradesmen are thriving.

It was the father's birthday too.

Merry Christmas everybody peeps. Hope it all went well.

Mine went pretty well besides the fact that a curry we went out for on Christmas eve, didn't play well for TNG or my daughter for that matter. This meant Christmas lunch - for all the slaving over a hot stove - was a little muted.

Hey ho.

I survived 2 days of the family, so all's well for moi.
Wife now working again at the hospital, Chaos there.
Just new year to survive now  ;D

Shame about the meal Smokes, prior to Xmas wife took me to Tamatanga as she has been and for a commercial restaurant, the food wasn't too bad to be honest.

Going out to eat on Xmas eve has become a bit of a thing in our family now as it keeps the kitchen clear for the following morning. TNG - and myself for that matter - always forget there's a price to pay for half a dozen (or so) beers, a red hot curry and rolling in at 1am. Maybe next year we'll play it down.

Happy new year to all, hope it all goes / went well.
I was in bed by 10 (missed Jools Holland  :-[) with a cold.  :(.
Had a lovely hot spicey Indian to try and sweat the cold out of me.

Yes indeed, Happy New Year to all of us!

I went out early for beer and got home around 11pm for a curry with the missus and then the traditional viewing of Hootenanny. Thoroughly enjoyed all three activities.

The impeding Coronation is in the news.  There's a special chair, on top of a magic rock.  We unwashed heathens on this side of the pond are marveling at the weirdness of the whole thing. 
We have also learned that, so far, the following musicians have declined to perform:
Adele
Elton John
Harry Styles
Robbie Williams
Spice Girls

Can anyone enlighten me as to who may have performed at Queen Elizabeth's coronation?  Is this a thing?
