I?m sure Sainsbury?s, Morrison?s, Tesco etc will all be doing discounts on crates.


Just be sure to feel a bit guilty about it because the use of alcohol as a loss leader by big chains is contributing to the demise of the local pub.


So to even it out go to the pub on Boxing Day and drink lots.

To be fair, a small band of us have been keeping the CPT open for years now, so I feel I can hold my head up... Besides, if the stupid pubs would stop being so selfish, and open on Christmas day, I'd be in there emptying my wallet!


Which reminds me...


A few years back the then manager of the CPT said to me "I can't believe this man, the one night I get to shut up, everyone's with their families, and I'm sat here on my own. Would rather open up!"... Guess that's the problem when most of the bar staff of London are thousands of miles away from family at crimbo time!

Mmmm, a pain au chocolat for breakfast (eaten on the hop whilst dragging a huge suitcase - trust me, I needed the energy)

A mince pie popped in whole for elevenses (it was tiny - honest)

Mmmm, a rather nice latte presently on the go as I clock watch....

BB, do you eat cream eggs all in one? Respect if you do!


I was always led to believe that the real wow-factor is if she can suck one through a hose-pipe ;-)



Has been a gluttony-free day thus far in the number5 house: Mrs.number5 on nights so asleep, I opted for a final day of racking up credit before the big day - porridge, run, light-lunch. Dull, and very jealous of you all, but means I can feel free to eat a ridiculous amount tomorrow!

    • Some foxes are very tame. The foxes that live near the electricity sub-station thing on the corner of Calton and Woodwarde will happily walk up to you/passed you. They are some of the best looking foxes around so clearly being well-fed - glorious coats and bushy tails but interested in humans and keen to engage/be fed rather than being scared.
    • Let’s not all get scared of the foxes now. Most likely explanation is protecting its den or association with food. We have foxes, and cats and they are no bother to each other. The fox will leave when the cats are out.   
    • I remember seeing something a few years ago on TV about a fox that was actually biting through people's shopping / takeaway food bags.  It was situated in an alleyway.  Not in London.  Very interesting in how the  urban foxes brain development has  been affected by their surroundings.   Not an exact quote from Darwin.  It's the adaptable that survive / not the strongest or the most intelligent.   I would be worried if a fox came close me.   Because they might be after my fur babies and they carry a lot of nasties.   Although they look beautiful from a distance or on a 🎄 card.  
    • Driving down Lordship lane around 2.45pm today saw a v sick looking fox walking in and out of the crowd.
