Anyway, as you can now gauge, things are flat. The Christmas tree has gone, leaving a big hole in the corner of the room; the pretty flashing lights are extinguished for another year; the decorations have been stuffed into a cardboard box and unceremoniously bunged into the shed and all that’s left of the ‘tis the season to be jolly’ are the landfill-filling mounds of cardboard and empty bottles and the knowledge that credit card bills are surely winging their way to you. See what I mean about flat? And we still have nearly three months of dark nights until the clocks spring forward in March. Oh, for the summer, eh?
Winter may bring shorter days and colder temperatures but it also offers many chances to snuggle up, get through your reading list and partake in heart-warming cuisine.” Heart-warming cuisine..? Who are these people? I like a Morrison’s bacon bap like the next bloke but it is a short-lived experience in the vast expanse of winter, is it not? I need something positive to latch on to and heart-warming cuisine ain’t it. No, I reckon that feeling flat is all part of a process and you just have to wade through it. To help raise your spirits, grab a funny DVD or book and spend a few hours exercising your laughter muscles.” I’d best open my box set of Ma Brown’s Boys then.
Hmmm, I suppose I could try emigrating to warmer climates. Hang on - I’ve already tried that one... No, I’m just going to have to ride this one out till the next meet don't know where don't know when but it will take place. See you next week folks.
