Fine, I'll stop clutching my grumpiness like a security blanket. Just for the next 24 hours.
No siblings, no cold, no festive spirit in the city, but I hear a side of Steeleye Span and suddenly I'm ready for Christmas. Gaudete!
Still, I'm missing the crap out of my friends in New Zealand (for whom it is already Christmas - merry thing, you lot! I wish you delicious food and minimal sunburn), and looking forward to the second Christmas I will be having up in Edinburgh with my brother and sister (and other sister) in less than a week. So, while I drink this tea and my good cheer remains, I'll wish you all a happy day with as much love and few rows as possible.
