Thud!

It's two hours into Christmas, and I'm halfway through Pratchett's Thud! at the moment. I've just got to the bit where three female coppers have agreed to meet up for drinks with a friendly female dancer (the kind who works in a place where a long demure skirt would be labelled a wardrobe malfunction) ... the coppers are a dwarf, a vampire, and a werewolf (and the last two have a soft spot for a male dwarf who's actually a human).

Managed to get some work done with some of the Mandarin tone recognition stuff, and helped Geronimo make some gulab jamuns (in other words, I burnt some). And listened to a few shows of the 99p Challenge.

Two Christmas meals to attend tomorrow. (Yay!)
