Ofnus - Burned by the Soul of the Moon Black Metal from Wales. Gorgeous. youtu.be/059bOJtAHGk?...

Bins have been emptied 🤗

Drought by Pelican Thrill Jockey Records, 2003. youtu.be/-kQfa5iZTTk?...

Messages to put away, toilet to clean, hoovering, gym, then work later. Probably have dinner to cook too. Better get my erse in gear. Another cup of tea first though.

American Primeval has been rather good, one episode to go. Which reminds me, I really should wear waistcoats more often.

May have to have a beer. It is Hogmanay after all, I'm not working either, so should probably begin early.

Cropped up in my memories from 9 years ago. Early to mid-teens to early/mid-twenties.

Family all away and the house is very quiet, even though they weren't noisy. Fire roaring, candles lit, book to read, Dirty Three keeping me company and was out for a short walk in the hills earlier.

Loungewear deployed, wine poured,fire on, cat comfy, time for a film with family.

Aberdeen had a stinker in Ayrshire. Lots of sad sheep heading back north on a shite evening.

Last piece of Christmas cake eaten, along with a slice of Wensleydale cheese. What next, I wonder. I may have to deploy the loungewaer soon.

Woke myself up snoring on the sofa. Away to light the fire, I think it's time and I may have a beer.

Daughter and partner got me this for Christmas. Gandalf and Durin's Bane on the bridge of Khazad-dûm and a Tolkien's World cookbook, they know me too well. I'll be baking lembas bread in my new jumper 😄

Merry Christmas, folks! Hope you all have a great day 🍻✨

Merry Christmas. Also, the anniversary of the worst bullying wizard being banned from what was Twitter. A day of peace on Earth (Twitter). I do wonder what he's up to now? I hope he's mended his ways. 🤔
