Christmas by the Numbers

On Saturday 23rd, over 14 hours, I:
Travelled on 4 trains
and 4 underground trains;
Visited 7 relatives (3 unexpected)
and 1 in-law (twice)
in 4 houses
with their 1 dog
and 2 tortoises (1 sick, 1 well).

There was a cloud of smoke in the living room at lunchtime
(when we couldn't find how to switch on the extractor fan on the cooker)
and a cloud of steam at Kings Cross in the evening
(when a steam train came in!)

24 hours later I have
received 225 pieces of email
of which 215 were spam.

And today I rest dash around like a mad thing
then have dinner with friends in the Kingston.

7 years ago today, my father died :-(
11 years ago the day after tomorrow, I started seeing Simon :-)

My Fortune Cookie told me:
Flee at once, all is discovered.
Get a cookie from Miss Fortune
