This is my jolly face
It’s the big day tomorrow, I want to take this opportunity to wish you all a very Happy Christmas and say thanks.
Thanks to all my readers for the time you have taken to read my blog and engage with me through it.
In one of my earlier posts, I stated that I was struggling with the whole festive spirit thing this year. Mrs Baldwin went out and bought me the Christmas jumper that you see pictured. I love it for a few reasons, one is that it took the piss out of me and my lack of jolly face. And, ironically, since it arrived, I have worn it every day and been much jollier.
The next reason, it features Darth Vader. Given my age and status, I am stupidly excited about going to see the latest Star Wars instalment. Between Christmas and the New Year return to work, I will watch the movie and I will wear my jumper to the cinema with pride.
The Christmas jumper market in the UK is worth £220 million. I’ll be honest, I am not a fan of the festive knit and have always erred on the side of the more understated Fair Isle kind of thing. This year though, I have embraced the fun (though in the case of my sweater, it’s arguably black humour).
And that brings me back to the point of this post. I hope that you have a lot of fun this Christmas with those that you love.
But before I go, this year I'll be raising my glass for a few absent friends. To Gary Martin and Sara Phillips, wherever you are, you are not forgotten this Christmas.
I’ll see you again on the other side.
