xmas

We've been quite British this year, doing Chistmas on the 25th rather than the normal Swedish 24th. In keeping with the book I got: "Döda vita män" (Dead White Men) about excentric Brits enlivening the 20th century. Also the "Dr Who" Christmas special which I'm about to watch, ooh. Charlie Stross almost spoiled me but I managed to skip past that part of his lj. Phew.

For once it's a white Christmas here, and the cat is enjoying it hugely. Well, not when he's out on his own but when humans come along to watch him cavort, and throw snow at him. He looks like a little lynx.

So that was "The End of Time Part One". It will be interesting to see the end of the "End", ha ha. Can't say I was too surprised by the surprise twist at the end. Good old Bernard Cribbins, though!

Funny that. I saw "The Voyage of the Damned" on Christmas Eve, because that's what was on on BBC Entertainment. So I've got two Xmas Specials this year. Also "Shrek III" last night -- those movies are really funny! But I don't see how they can sell them as childrens' movies, all the jokes are way way beyond kids (except the sight gags).

Our cat looks a lot like Puss-in-boots, especially when he smells food. Like right now, there's salmon brewing for him. Oh the big green eyes he makes!

Here are some snowy pics, including stalkery-cat.
