The weekend ...

The Christmas tree is up.

We didn't burn the house down.

Did create a lot of smoke, though, when we forgot that the lights we'd brought with us from the US weren't compatible with UK electrical standards.

Went for a drive and a walk in the rain; discovered some nice climbing just an hour away from here.

Note for future reference : the ramblings of a fifteen year old who is trudging along in the rain behind his parents, berating them for being freaks of nature who insist on being outdoors when clearly the weather is only suitable for buying expensive things from an indoor mall, can serve a source of cheap entertainment.
