Went to my first Xmas party of the year yesterday. There were too many Tottscummers there for my liking - it's amazing how a half-respectable season sees them crawling out of the woodwork like fast-breeding termites. Still, there was a cute Arsenal fan there, however. Touchy people, these Gooners though. I was getting on quite well but one mention of a possible Seaman transfer and she ran faster than Thierry Henry on steroids. Hmf.

Then went on to Wolverhampton for The Datsuns/The Hellacopters double-header at the Wulfrun Hall. Don't have time for a detailed review but it was a tremendous display of rock'n'roll showmanship from both bands. I really recommend you take the chance of seeing these two bands together if they're playing near you in the next few weeks.
