January is overrated
I've decided that my New Year officially begins on Monday 14 January. That's mostly because yesterday, I was somewhere that was sunny and 25 degrees. Today I'm somewhere that...isn't ( Read more... ) -

On the plus side, since applying a sticky heat patch first thing this morning, I can now move my head almost 90 degrees! Not either side, 90 degrees in total, but it's a start. Sleeping propped up on pillows has really done one on my neck ( Read more... ) -

Marvel Netflix Catch-Up
It's taken me a while, but last night, I finally finished Iron Fist S2. I'm now caught up on Jessica Jones, Luke Cage and Iron Fist, with only Daredevil to go.

#ITPE Dear Podficcer letter
[heavily drawing on last year's letter...]
Dear Podficcer,
Thank you so much! I think the only thing I really want to emphasis this year is that Gen is my bag. This winter is going to be my most stressful for many years, so warm and cosy Gen is my dream gift. All the family-feels and team-bonding!
