The way heās phrased this makes it seem like I just wandered in the direction of someone playing a piano by sheer coincidence but I did actually commission an arrangement of this song for the occasion

Took me some time to get a window to watch that but itās one of those things that says everything youāre thinking, but better- plus a ton more you hadnāt even considered/didnāt know at all but youāre glad you now do. I can see why theyāre excited about video essays if this is what they can do!

I wore it for my workās Christmas do hoping it might help me find other like-minded individuals but the only person who commented was the bloke behind the bar and if Iād have spent the whole time talking to him Iād probably have been moved up the redundancy list for not being a team player

Give yourself a break, take yourself off, like Thomas in that photo. Decompress. Donāt feel guilty. If you can curl up on top of a wardrobe and avoid human contact for an hour, do, but if not, go for a walk, have a nap or a bath. If anyone has a problem they can ring me and Iāll give them hell ā¤ļø

5. Beautiful flowers from the florist in my life. Was so good to see a friend Iāve not seen in ages and there should be a word for the joy you feel when your friend finds happiness because itās a lovely feeling.

(they had forgotten the context of the other reindeers being knobheads. But then I suppose, forgiveness and redemption is a good Christmas message, too)

3. Represents Christmas with the kids (I donāt tend to share photos of them on my author socials) they insisted we leave nine carrots out for all the reindeer because they werenāt keen on Father Christmasās favouritismā¦

Sorry it took so long to appear, I filed it two days after we met but my editor was inundated with festive reviews and Christmassy stuff, so there was a bit of a queue! Good job the exhibition is there for a year š
