Well enough, given my being out of work again. We have a short plastic tree and enough balls(and other stuff) to weigh it down. Dont know if you've ready my little piece about Christmas it's on my front page.

I dont think of myself as a scrooge but I find the commercialisation of Christmas so aproproate since it is such a pagan time of the year.

Hey Tom,
how are you? i don't think of you as a scrooge.it is the society we live in and i agree christmas is way over the top,has been for many years,due to the generation we move into,sadly a sign of the times.
Sorry to hear your jobless again,hope you find something soon.
Ive taken on a cleaning job (something i thought i would never do) but money is good and i work nights,shifts start supposedly at 8pm until 4am,but last weekend,i worked from 7.30pm up until 6am,with half hour break,i was exausted i can tell you,i've done that for 4 nights,next time is the 4th of feb which is a 5 night stint.my hands are swollen,my back and legs hurt for days on end.but i just think of the money,thats the only thing that keeps me going..and my lord.

Nice to hear from you again, I though maybe you'd fallen of the edge of the world (not really). I've had night jobs before and I hate them. Sometimes though the money is just needed so I take them. Regret it later though.

I have written a new guide entry called the "Descent of English Dissent'. It is the best entry I've written so far. A little amatuerish I know but that is the level I write at unforunately. If you like English history it might remind you of a few things. If you dont like english history then you probably wont like it.

I've also come upon some references that indicate that England was the first 'Christian' country far before Italy, that even the Jesuits recognized this fact. More than just a legend but historical facts. I could send some link to you to check out if you like.

Keep the old stiff upper lip old chap cheerio!
