As Boxing Day draws to a close and the eve of my birthday beckons I have nothing major to report: a quiet Christmas spent, for the most part, at Medd Towers - nipping out for lunch at The Balti House - and then back home to see off the remaining episodes of Broadchurch with David Tennant and Olivia Coleman.
Followed by a new book (there's still no feeling quite like starting a new novel). You can keep yer reindeer and yer wee donkey and all and sundry oxen, cattle and other Xmas related beasts. The only animals I'm interested in this Christmas are slow horses. Mick Herron's latest Slough House offering - Clown Town - was lurking in my stocking (and a signed copy too) so that's the next few days sorted. I truly hope your Christmas was as chilled as mine.


Sounds a great way to spend Christmas. Ours was chilled too, thanks to a butternut squash wellington from Tesco and a cheap bottle of shiraz!
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday John. Hope you’re enjoying that book - we’ll expect a review.
