It's Christmas Eve! If you're not all sorted then you're up against the clock - good luck.
May the day feel as festive as you'd like it to and may you be able to pass on a bit of Christmas cheer as you go about your day. Jingle 'em if you've got 'em.

The last Monday before Christmas, if you work in retail or hospitality then my thoughts are with you (I know from experience how that goes). Remember, you've come through so many Mondays that you should fear them, Monday should fear you.

We stumble out of Monday into Tuesday, bits of tinsel sticking out here and there and maybe carried more than momentum than intent but that's fine. Keep doing your best, know that no-one expects you to be everything all the time, and keep being fabulous.

Looking forward to the cardiac rest test tomorrow.
