I just saw this by chance haha! I will be spending a bit of time near the Bard this Xmas with the family. My little girl is not quite old enough to understand what it is all about yet but she is excited already by the sight of wrapping paper.

I hope you are over some of your troubles Gadjo and are in a happier place. Christmas can be a tough time of year for many and there are way too many sad stories doing the rounds at the moment. A friend of mine lost his Dad the week before last after his parents had an argument. His dad stormed out and hanged himself in the garage. Everybody is devastated. He had some hidden financial trouble. Then a few days ago I found out a guy I knew from school split up with his girlfriend of 8 years and topped himself soon after. He made a post on Facebook a few hours before about a new start and exciting times ahead. I don't think it matters where people share their troubles as long as they do, because a problem shared is a problem halved. Even if you are sharing things with people you don't know, it can be a relief in itself. Anyway, enough of the sad stuff.

Merry Christmas everybody and stay safe and enjoy.
