Season’s greetings. I played (nerf) tenpin bowling with Nils and Koko on Christmas Day and drank Jimbo’s homebrew ale on Boxing Day. But it’s not been all beer and skittles. My (first) summer cold held off until December 30 to manifest. Based on my 2008 health record I predict it will be the first of two incapacitating rhinoviral illnesses before autumn. I would have plumped for three, but I suspect the third will wait until the first week of March to coincide with my twelve hour flight to London.
Also, the quality of internet provision by our internet provider has been intermittent. This may not get published; the last one didn’t.
