The end is nigh...

2007 is almost finished...that was quick!

Seemingly if the years start passing by quickly it signifies that one must be getting old. I beleive one might be, so one is for some reason speaking as one might speak if one was, infact, the Queen.

Funnily enough this year I watched the Queens speech for the first time as far as i can remember. We had to watch it at the request of our guests Fred and Audrey (Mum's new in-laws. Oh yeah, Mum got married. The Queens speech didnt really inspire me very much. Mind you it wasn't worse than Duncans speech (the "best man").

Disappointed with the Christmas number 1. Its on in the background right now, its pants! The origional version is good! If you would like to listen to a decent version listen to Mariah Cairey and Whitney Houston, its on the soundtrack to a film called "The prince of Egypt". It seems that the Christmas number one will continue to be dominated by the x-factor winner. It kind of takes the fun/surprise element out of it. And could they not make it a bit more christmassy? Obviously not.

Im a bit of a Christmas moan this year! but I do have some Christmas highlights too! The midnight service was good, it was led by Mary Morrison and I have discovered that I actually have a talent!! I can do Mary Morrison impressions!! Another highlight was the spur of the moment shopping trip on boxing day (in order to escape Andrews slide show of peru and another few hours of bargain hunt/cash in the attic/car booty). And I enjoyed my third year (maybe fourth? a relatively new tradition anyway) of carol singing in the royal infirmary, even though the majority of the wards were rediculously warm. Staying over night at Antony's was also fun - even though santa delivered my stocking to the wrong house : )

here is a festive photo of poppet for you.
