Going to London to visit family/friends is great, but I’m getting pretty sick of the 3 hour drives. I dated someone in London for 2 and an half years while living in Leeds and 6 hours travelling 3 weekends out of every 4 sort of killed any interest I had left in spending that long by myself in a car.

Still, the fact that its Christmas eve and I’m not out finishing my Christmas shopping is a bonus… and a massive improvement over last years 4pm dash around the White Rose Centre looking for stuff for my dad.

And after 5 days festivities, I’m back in Leeds finishing moving to my new flat. Bit gutted that I can’t get Sky TV, owing to the 30 foot tree opposite the flat blocking the signal, but it turns out that if you ring Virgin and blag that you’re a “disillusioned Sky customer” who’s considering switching, they’ll offer you a pretty sweet deal. I’m looking forward to testing out the alleged 20mb broadband.

So anyway – enough of the procrastinating. Time to finish packing.

Merry Christmas everyone! 🙂
