Holiday holiday holiday!  TWENTY days of holiday!  I haven’t had this much time off in a row since university.  Very excited.  The Christmas present pile is growing (as in my gifts for my family, not presents for me).  I will now need to take an entire suitcase for my 3 day visit to west London, because as well as all of the presents (which include several heavy books, DVDs, clothing, etc) I am also taking 3 bottles of champers.  I feel a bit like Santa.
