Suspect they're off to rip phones out of people's hands, put them in their sacks, ride off... then place them in stocking of deserving children on Christmas Eve. Why oh why do we suffer this every year...

Also in the Observer sports section: a full page report on the Villa-Arsenal match. Four columns - all on Arsenal. That's it. No mention of Villa in the match. Nada. Zilch. London- bubble hermetically sealed.

It's the out-of-the-world saves
....No, it's the long range arrow goals
....No, it's the fight and mental strength to keep attacking when you could settle for a draw
....No it's the inspired substitutions and depth on the bench
.... okay - it's complicated... but it's all combining beautifully

Thank you. I would've missed that extra satisfaction.

How you guys do satire any more beats me. Real life is just so unsurpassable

Never fails to surprise me how far north it sets in winter, given how low the sun is. Have to get the globe down to do some 3D thinking about lunar orbits as to why it does.
