Time to evacuate

December 20th, 2009

I was going to write an insightful piece today about an article in the Sunday Times about blogging in Ireland.

Then I toyed with the idea of doing my own counter-article.

But I am too fucking cold.

There is a gale blowing in through the broken window [I know I should have fixed it, but Herself claims she knows nothing about glazing] and I swear three castrated brass monkeys just walked past outside.  The snow is beginning to drift up against the leg of the table.

The car is still a bit iffy, so the village is out.  All I have in the house is a spare can of Guinness.  Knickers.

I think it is about time to cash in on the time of year.

I think I may just wander around to a neighbour’s house with my can of Guinness and wish them Season’s Greetings.

Of course the poor saps will feel obliged to invite me in. 

They usually have a warm house.

And a grand stock of drink.

Heh!
