Best wishes to everyone on here too! Tom, I'll see how I get on streaming
your Christmas Special at our family get together. Good luck with your new
venture, and your resolution :-)

I second the Merry Christmas-wishing motion, and urge its unanimous
approval.

Here in the States it has been a rather bleak two weeks, but we are climbing
out if it. (More of us than than you might think are saddened *and*
embarrassed at the state of affairs here.)

I'm away from Atlanta this week, in northern Virginia with family, having a
grand time. It was a tumultuous year for me. I worked at a  video production
facility and was laid off after 26 years this summer, and believe it or not
it was a good thing. I've set up my own freelance film/video editing
business and am already doing well. But it was so time-consuming I've not
had a moment to log the 300+ Peel cassettes I promised to index so I can
help fill missing slots in the archive.

That's my new years resolution.

I'll resume my weekly Tuesday 7pm Eastern US time radio show Jan 8 via
1690wmlb.com

In the meantime, here's the download link for my hour long Christmas special
if you would like an hour of holiday warmth and strangeness. I mean come on,
it's got Sonic Youth covering Martin Mull.

If you need an editor for your movie/documentary/video give me a ring, ha.

Cheers then, and Merry Whatever-You-Celebrate from across th' pond.
