Change...

Well this Christmas has certainly been different so far...

Yesterday my brother, his girlfriend and myself kept saying how it didn't feel like Christmas eve as we sat outside waiting for lunch in Valletta . Christmas eve was further made surreal by my brother insisting I came with him to the local park (which has been built into Birkirkara's old train station) to see the masses of cats in the park. He wasn't joking. There must have been in the region of thirty to forty stray cats living in this park. And my brother and me took great glee in feeding the cats some ham. I was very reassured to see a cat lady come along to feed the cats cat food and give them fresh water.

Today (Christmas day) feels more like Christmas - although I am in Malta, there has been presents, phone calls to family and yummy Christmas dinner (I supplied the paxo as Malta does not have any it seems!).

Far too Excitable

I am very excited at the moment...

Lots of stuff is going to happening over the next week or so and I am so EXCITED about it all.

This evening I am taking Garfield to see Fantasmagoria by Vodoo Vaudville at the Komedia - he wasn't supposed to know what we were doing but he guessed... Anyway very much looking forward to seeing it as neither of us has ever been to the Komedia before.

I now only have three work days left and then I am off until the 4th of January! And after my last day on wednesday I am going to watch the Burning of the Clocks on the beach... Last year's was amazing and the first time I had ever been - I want to go every year now! After the fireworks myself and Garfield will hopefully be going to see King Kong and making the most of the orange wednesday offer.

And then best of all on Thursday I am flying off to Malta. I am sooooo looking forward to catching up with my parents - I haven't seen them since the end of August and it feels far too long to have not have visited them. I am also looking forward to the warmer weather!

The Yellow Shop...

I have been recently wondering what the 'Yellow Shop' sells on Oxford Street in Brighton... Me and Garfield keep imagining that if you went in there you could by a bag of pure yellow... I think if you went out back they would be able to show you the sun in a cupoboard. Garfield thinks they keep the purest yellow hidden at the back.

(PS. If any says they sell watches etc. I'll beat them up with a bag of yellow)!
