Christmas has officially begun.


Me and the bread knife took our little one to see the turning on of the Christmas lights in our town today. This is and was notable for it's special celebrity guest who was introduced with the following sentence (I shit you not):

"Ok! Do any of you watch a program on television called Coronation Street? Do you know who Fizz is? Well she has had a lot of trouble with boyfriends in the past, what with going out with Kirk and all."

At this point the crowd buzzed in anticipation of sharing oxygen with a bona fide soap star. Could it really be that a fat ginger lass from a shite soap opera was actually lowering herself to appear in our little borough on the outskirts of Leeds? Not exactly.

"Here tonight to turn on our lights is Fizz off Corries present love interest!!! Please go wild for this fella here!" (or words to that effect). Not a fucking clue. The fireworks were great though.
