I shall find it difficult to get online for the next fortnight so here’s an early Season’s Greetings to all Talking Squid readers.

This is my daughter’s picture of Rudolph. Gotta love the eyelashes. It was the cover to a series of letters she stapled together addressed to each of Santa’s reindeer detailing how wonderful she thinks they are. (”Dear Rudolph, did you know there’s a song about you…?”)

Merry Solstice, one and all.
