@the_sibyl @absinthecity I’ve cracked it this evening: reading the paper in the bar, with a large and overpriced G&T 🙂

@LordGU whisky is tempting but I’m already badly dehydrated! Happy Christmas, Gunter!

Trapped in a BOILING HOT hotel room, in the dark, with restless kids, a snoring wife, too-expensive WiFi and ropey phone signal. Help.

Ah, the Christmas spirit. Going to rob an off licence?

Look, @nelldarby, it’s Knox’s Temperance Hotel! “@OldeBritain: Canongate, Edinburgh, c1880 ”

@jpstacey @branespeaks or to the tune of Bird on a Wire, etc etc. I’s self-explanatory, of course.

@rickbox the kids bit is fine actually. It’s all the fucking planning

I feel like the relentless juggernaut of Xmas has run me over, reversed over me, then run me over again. Hate it.
