So what is timesnewroman? It's not the font, rather my take on the age we live in. The USA is the new Rome and the times we live in are timesnewroman.

Quiet round here I've almost come to the end of my Christmas New Year Holiday and have pretty much accomplished nothing. Well nothing apart from some culinary triumphs - I have found the perfect Daupinois potato recipe and it is simply fabulous, but thats another post another time.Our only socialisation over the period was 1) a visit to Lady El, who fed us fabulous meatballs and pasta and an exquisite chocolate pudding. I repaid this by falling asleep and liberally dowsing her NEW suite with Port and Brandy (fortunately it was Scotchguarded) we haven't seen her since as she's been smitten by the bug that's doing the rounds, so I don't know if I'm forgiven yet. 2) New years day at Mumsy where I pigged out on home made steak pie with roast potatoes. 3) The Cooncillors Party, which was by his standards a fairly quiet affair, but gave me the opportunity to catch up on "Soccer" gossip with the manager of Burlington Barons.
thewife too has been laid low by the bug today, so she's pretty much spent it sleeping. I only hope she's recovered by tomorrow as we had plans.
Finally just to keep Reidski sweet, I have to mention his beloved hoopies' umpteenth consecutive victory over plucky, luckless, Killie. Actually I saw the second Celtic goal on tv and have to admit that although previously I thought our current keeper Smith was inept and was costing us at least a goal I game, I have now revised this assessment - the guy is A FUCKING USELESS TWAT!
