So, I head into Norwich to do some Christmas shopping, and who should I meet?

It’s Santa! Not just any Santa, but Playmobil’s Santa! Doesn’t he look cheery as he shills for some other Santa’s grotto? To be honest, I think he looks a bit uncomfortable, but I suppose he has to pay for all those holidays in Tahiti somehow. Luckily I met him again after his shift.

There now, he’s much happier! [...]

The He-man Christmas special is the epitome of everything a cartoon Christmas special should be about.

I am known, to discerning gentlefolks, as Little Al. You don’t need to know why. At this time of the year, like many, my heart becomes filled with Yuletide joy! Am I, you ask, becoming soft in my old age? Not a bit of it, foolish and impertinent reader! When I am not flying hither and thither on my vintage speederbike in the execution of unspeakable acts, I like to correspond with my [...]

This would explain why when I woke up this morning, I felt a sudden urge to own one of these:

I’m moving on Thursday, from this tiny flat on the edge of a hellmouth to a little terraced house on the other side of Norwich. It would be nice, now I’ll have more space, to [...]
