Hey! How are you?
Christmas is a funny time of year isnt it - people expect you to be really happy. I wa at the local carol service on Sunday and it was all I could do not to collape in floods of tears

Same here really...
Everybody expects you to enjoy yourself. I havn't felt the cheer much.
It just seems so unexpected...Christmas this year. Like it shoudn't have happened for another couple of months.

I know what you mean! There was lots I thought would be sorted out by Christmas and it is just as muddled as ever. Starting a new job did not help for me either.
Despite having some amazing friends around I have felt very lonely.

"...It'll be lonely this Christmas..."

Lucky you - I want to see that!
I am not very good at getting organised to go to the cinema though - even if its only me to go! I am not that fond of going on my own either...
So is it good?

I dont know...I didn't go, Now I'm going in the second week on January.
The 1979 version of LOTR is a classic though.

I have not seen that one either still I can wait to hear what you think of it! I gather that they are going to rerun the radio version here in the UK on Radio 4 soon.
