Season's greetings

With Paul being otherwise engaged and me out of reach of a computer from tomorrow until at least Boxing Day, I'll take the opportunity to wish you all a very merry Christmas from the pair of us at Black & White & Read All Over. Ten points clear at the top - not a bad present and certainly better than a pair of naff socks (even if it is top of a table we don't want to be in).

Let's just hope that we can keep it up through the festive period and beyond and that a few people get the gifts they need: Big Lad a dictionary so he can get a better appreciation of what total commitment means; Bigger Lad a Wii so he doesn't have to leave the house and can batter people virtually instead; ASBO, Jabba and Llambiarse one-way tickets out of Tyneside...
