Christmas Past

Christmas has been and gone, New Year is here and the sales are even in their latter half.

Today there was a sense that those commuting to work were taking part in a forced march. No one seemed to want to me there, the walk spoke of both resentment and disappointment that the Christmas period had ended so quickly.

I overheard two young women on the train discussing a former friend who they had fallen out with. The former friend had had the cheek to remove their "friend" status in Facebook. In 2008 this was the worst thing a friend could possibly do and they attacked her with relish.

A cold wind is blowing accross London and snow is forecast. Christmas has gone but there may still be a long winter to come.

Happy New Year everyone !
