Does anybody care??
So Tony Blair has become a Catholic. Woo hoo Can anyone explain to me just why this has been in every single news bulletin that has been on radio or tv today? Have there been no atrocities in the world? Have no important sporting fixtures taken place? What has one man's religious affiliation got to do with any of us?

I feel a Bah Humbug moment coming on...

Christmas is only two days away. *panics and flails arms wildly* I have only had 363 days notice of this - how come it has come round so quickly?? I have no presents wrapped, none. I still have to deliver the neighbour's cards. I still have to make my mum's! *sigh* We do have the turkey and half the veggies. And I have the obligatory tin of sweeties, so all is nearly well. The plan is to hit Sainsbury's on Monday for those last minute goodies. Because of course, the shops won't be open again for oh, all of 24 hours - maybe 48!!! And my freezer isn't really full to the brim, along with the fridge...
