Drawing to a close…
December 22, 2011Well, that’s another year almost over and it’s been quite eventful! Not always in a good way.
But there’s not been very much happening since the previous entry.
As you might expect, we went to see the newly installed pandas at Edinburgh Zoo last weekend and there are a couple of not very good photos in my Flickr stream, together with a few pictures of some of our other favourites… Hopefully we’ll get there again soon and I’ll take better pictures of the new arrivals.
There haven’t been many films, etc. we fancied seeing recently but we will be off to the Traverse Theatre tomorrow to see their Christmas show, The Tree of Knowledge, which is a comedy featuring David Hume and Adam Smith in the 21st century! We’d have gone sooner but it’s been selling out, so we’re lucky to sneak in on it’s last performance!
And coming soon: a quiet Christmas and a welcome couple of days off. ![]()
And the same at New Year!
Book of the year? Difficult to say; the Neal Stephenson was a giant page turner, and several others were very enjoyable, but the winner (subject to me changing my mind) is Kings of Eternity by Eric Brown. I think. It seems to be the only one I said was ‘excellent’ on my Flickr book commentary set for this year.
