December the 14th

Eddie Mair | 09:51 UK time, Thursday, 14 December 2006

I don't think it's my place to pass judgement on anyone. But - I though this picture was on the creepy side. Curbie Firetank supplied it...with these words...

"Eddie and Co - I thought this would make an interesting, if sinister addition to the PM "advent snapalendar" I took it last January in Finland [where it is pretty much always christmas]. Still can't decide if it's a freak of nature, or a snow'n'pine installation by some crazy Fin, well it was minus 50C [if you count the 'wind chill'] and that does things to people's minds, apparently ! Regards and Winterval greetings, Curbie."

In fact now I look at it again, I think this guy used to be freeze-framed at the end of at least one series of Star Trek.

    Oh dear, I'm being fiendishly fast with the posting it seems. Erm, what else to say today?

    Eddie - you could have used the word "weird" here, to good effect. If you were confident about spelling it, of course... Did you use "creepy" as a safer alternative? Is it time I went to work & stopped messing about here? YES. Oh joy unbounded. Christmas Carol, here I come. Look out, Leeds!

    Still no Wednesday newsletter, and still no apology. Well, there is one: I’m sorry to keep going on about this.

    That's too creepy for words. But really interesting picture. I'm tempted to turn it into a Christmas card for folk I'm not too keen on!

    Dr. H, I have never subscribed to the newsletter. Sometimes I catch Eddie's trailer at 4:30, which by all accounts has the same contents.

    See if you can unsubscribe, then start again. Perhaps there's a limited list and you've fallen off the bottom. Remember the counter. No, don't. Other blogs still have it, and it doesn't work there either.
