It really was. And everyone really joined in with gusto so there was no self consciousness! 😊
We also did the Twelve Days of Christmas with all the actions! Similarly “He’s got the whole world in his hands”. Jingle Bells, Rudolph, Ding Dong Merrily on High. It was just glorious fun.
Oh all sorts. We Plough the Seeds & Scatter, some WWI songs, all the classic carols like Away in a Manger, We Three Kings, Little Donkey, Silent Night, the behemoths of O little town, Hark the Herald, O Come All Ye Faithful, Wenceslas. Xmas pop hits. Give me oil in my lamp. Loads!
This was kind of the opposite as it’s all adults reverting to childlike enthusiasm. Really quite sweet. And very funny.

Anyway, we need some joy, so here's the Egyptian foreign minister being given a Lego Pyramid by the Danish foreign minister.
An absolute whale of a time tonight at the Grand for James Partridge and his Big Christmas Assembly. Primary school bangers, carols and Christmas songs. A jolly, warm-hearted, raucous singalong. Balm for the soul in this wicked world. Heartily recommend.
Quote with your favourite film and album from the year you were born. (I have to say there were cooler films from my year but I had to be honest!!)

Whatever else comes out once the attack on the ECML train last night, this alone is a credit to the train crew, driver, and signalling team.

Huntingdon was the first possible stop. In a highly stressful situation and improvising a plan the train lost just 3 minutes vs line speed to get there.
I wish I hadn’t decided on Barbara. This tower is really quite heavy.

Hope everyone's swapped their Halloween costumes for their All Saints Day costumes today. It's so difficult dressing up as *all* the saints, so this year I'm just doing St Catherine, in case anyone is wondering why I have a giant wheel with me.
I picked one up at the hospital cafe the other day. I refuse to cede the ground to them. I know why I’m wearing it and don’t much care what others may think. I appreciate not everyone feels the same though.
Yesterday I lost my old faithful hot water bottle after many years service. New one arrived today and is called, apparently, Cassandra. She says she’s guaranteed for 5 years but I don’t know whether to believe her…
I didn’t see that so don’t know the context but in fairness he was on Radio3 the other day and was clearly a keen listener of classical music.
I think it’s a huge problem across a number of policy areas that large numbers of them do nothing *but* politics. They have no hinterland whatsoever. No other interests. It’s desolate.
It doesn’t exactly scream of them believing his denials does it? 😳

About bloody time. As someone with an astigmatism it’s even worse. Like a starburst in your vision both head on and in mirrors. Puts me off driving after dark which is very limiting in a northern winter.
