Christmas or what?

I'm not a big fan of Christmas these days.

For some reason, I often seem to get some sort of bug over the holidays, and end-up flat out and feeling awful. I usually have the flu jab offered by the medics, but does it do any good - who knows.

This year has a been a bit painful because of the way programmes run up to the holiday break - we've got one show premiering on the 17th and the next on the 31st - so both have to be completed and with the broadcaster in plenty of time. That's compared to the usual schedule, where I can work right up until the Saturday morning before premiere, which means that we can be pretty well up to date with content.

But it's nearly done. The New Years eve show is nearly sorted, and we'll just be shooting an item about satellite TV early next week to edit in on Tuesday, and that'll be it . . .

As for 2009 - looks pretty damn busy from where I'm sitting!
