I do not have much to write about today. We spent new years eve here, drank a bit and watched TV. It was quiet, and nice. I know you can’t really compare such things, but I really think this Christmas has been one of my best; it’s up there with the Christmas I had down under. This was largely because it was my first Christmas with Lyn, and because my Christmas day itself was so special. This Christmas has reminded me how lucky I am – I have a great family and a wonderful girlfriend.

I’m really looking forward to the new year. I like my little ‘job’ at school, and there’s a possibility that I might start working at a local youth radio station, but I’ll write more about this if and when it materialises. There’s also our wedding to plan, and, with any luck, a morocco trip to look forward to. All bodes well for 2011 – happy new year everybody!
