It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas

I finish work today. Ahead are two whole weeks of annual leave and tomorrow I'll be jetting off to Cologne for three days, sampling the delights of their famous Christmas Markets before returning home just in time for Christmas Eve.

I'm not trying to brag, I'm just looking forward to it more than Noddy Holder to his annual Christmas royalties. It's funny, Germany seems to be something akin to the centre of my universe in recent times, what with this trip and the now legendary World Cup expedition back in 2006, it's becoming a regular haunt. Maybe my Aryan qualities stand me in good stead or perhaps more to the point, Boris Becker doppelgangers can't fail.

Auf Wiedersehen, pet.
