Had Monday and Tuesday off to try and recover after a hectic Christmas and New Year – was sorry not to see everyone t’up north but not surprised given I was only really there for a couple of days.

Went ice skating with Sian, Matt and Gloria on Tuesday night – all was going well until I managed to do a “banana-skin-esque” comedy fall (with my feet higher than my head) and cracked my head and neck off the nice. Hobbled off the rink with the help of one of the staff and then sat dazed and confused for a while before skating on through the pain and mild concussion… (1… 2… 3… Ahhh). Been feeling a bit rough every since – like my body is half a second behind my head – most annoying and embarrassing!

Starting to plan a trip to Sri Lanka in Feb to see the family, as I type this Ellen should be getting on a plane to come back…

Made another change to the site tonight – added an rss feed for anyone who wants to use an rss feed to montior this site.
