aaah yes, chrissmouse is upon us, in all her splendour (is christmas a lady? 
hmmm).
mmmmm mice pies ooh! *mince* pies, i meant. although brambly hedge's 
christmas special last year really was quite something.

hands up who's going home for chrissmass then? feel a bit miffed as can't go 
home for 'x'mas as already am at home. thinking perhaps should go and stay 
in a cold student house with grotty kitchen for a week for a change of 
scene.

i would like to know whatever happened to paper chains? and do they have 
them in the states too? i so remember being at school, in the magic lead up 
to chrissmass week, where the whole class would sit at tables, chin-high in 
sherbert coloured paper strips. wish you could do that at work too.

i would like to try the costa cofee winter warmer hot apple spiced drink 
thing - is it nice? i went ice skating the other day (yes! an open air rink 
bang smack in the middle of the city - by liverpool st station) but there 
was nowhere to get hot choc from - imagine! it's a v small rink too, so 
you're always going in a circle and can't get any speed up or be clever and 
twisty turny. but it *is* *ace*, and they put this funny trance music on 
too, which at first is annoying, but then adds to the oddness of the whole 
thing. along with the sound of the gentle thwack of child on ice - honestly, 
they hurtle round without any kind of fear whatsoever- skate! thud! skate - 
teeter - thud! ace.

ooh, so i went to the dentists this morning, and it was grrrr-ate! i really, 
really quite love going to the dentists, and it slightly worries me that i 
do. i like the smell and the lying down looking at the ceiling bit, and  - 
no, i'll stop there. i forgot to ask him for stickers though, which is 
annoying. and you know the stuff they make you swill your mouth out with at 
the end? well they gave me *water*, not that smashing pink stuff. which 
apparently was originally coloured pink, so you couldn't tell if you were 
bleeding when you spat the water out! nice.

i lament that advent calandars are now *always* choco-late. i liked the ones 
with glitter and proper windows.

i'll go now. but fanks for all being *so* lubby and chrismassy, and to each 
of you i give a little peck, and some brandy butter, if you like it.

hope you all get your heart's desire this chrissmass

lots of love and snow angels

xxxxsoph
