Have a Jolly Good Christmas

PictureThis 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.
