Twixt Christmas and New Year

Tom decides to sit under the Christmas tree.

The traditional game of scrabble leads to my traditional defeat at the hands of people who know the rules better.

One of my presents to myself is deployed in cutting a 10mm strip from the skirting board in preparation for the tiling of my basement. This Worx SoniCrafter has to be the most useful powertool ever.

The SoniCrafter is later used to cut away a rotating nut on the fuel tank*  of my BMW R1150GS...amazing how a 1 hour routine job such as changing the fuel filter can turn into an epic twixtchristmasnewyear event.

* Don't try this at home.

Vienna Christmas Market Mass Mayhem

Too many people and too much shoving! Looks pretty from a distant vantage point however. This video clip features an exclusive and never previously revealed Nikos and Mrs Nikos sound footage.

Many Eiffel Towers

Seasonal Good Wishes

I wish all my fellow bloggers a very merry holiday season and may you avoid the Channel Tunnel!

An Intermission

I apologise for the short intermission that is entirely due to my inability to have ensured that my camera and reliable internet connection were colocated last weekend  - The Nikos World Trip to Paris Spectacular will therefore be combined with the Christmas edition and published in due course, all things considered, with a following wind, when it takes my "fancy".
