Youngest Son arrived yesterday.
It turns out that he had been wild camping (no tent) near Aviemore in Scotland, so my guess was spot on. (freezing cold, so where will the Boy choose??). Boy complained that the weather was warmer up in Scotland than it was in Nottinghamshire, but still had a great time.
He lives on the Isle O Wight, but is thinking of moving to the North-East coast. Property prices on the Island are rather high, particularly for a first time buyer…
Gave him his Christmas present - headphones (Fidelio X2HR) and a birthday gift, Bruce Campbell - ‘If Chins Could Kill: Confessions of a B-Movie Actor’ book. This book is hilarious, and if you know of Bruce Campbell, it doesn’t disappoint. Great insights into Sam Raimi and the mechanics of film production. Ace.
Boy and I waited for The Wife to go to bed, then watched Mad God on DvD, (thread started on this genuine one-of-a-kind film) - lovely to spend time just being with The Boy. He lives 200 miles away, and I miss giving him a hug and sharing a laugh.
I have more sleeves to fill with records from Headway charity shop. The sales are definitely increasing, which is excellent.
Beef stew and suet dumplings later. I am salivating already.
