It's an absolute privilege to have such wonderfully kind and lovely friends, and I can't thank you enough (even if I'm not quite sure where I'm going to put several dozen small goose figurines!).

Happy holidays to all those celebrating 🎄😊

And finally, a couple of digital items and a parcel yet to arrive.

@shaun1e.bsky.social gifted Placid Plastic Duck Simulator, @mrstuarta.com gifted the ETS2 DLC Road to the Black Sea, and @sportycuff.bsky.social gifted You Know It!

And then, the geese arrived.

We have Ashley's goose hat, @mrstuarta.com's goose drinks coasters, Rob's siz small goose figurines, and @missplaying.bsky.social's fifty (*fifty*!) even smaller goose figurines.

Normally that's where it ends, but seeing my growing panic after the third parcel arrived, the others (rightly) thought it'd be funny to keep adding to my pile of boxes.

So next up, there's @aarongilllive.bsky.social's cardboard cutout of Gary Lineker, and @rumplepusscat.bsky.social's jars of jam.

Big thanks @craftman.bsky.social for the puzzle boxes and the Taskmaster key ring! I'm so very merry!

*"its", damn it. That'll teach me for typing while also trying not to fall over on a tram.

Thoughts after the second set, it's encore, and it's second encore:

(Fantastic gig, definitely going to need to let my voice rest for a little bit though! 😊)
