Signing off, festively

Everybody needs a break, so, as it's Christmas, I'll be signing off on here for a little while... and giving you a break from my postings! In fact, today it's my wife's birthday so I'll shortly be switching off to go and celebrate with her. And in the coming days I'll be catching up with family and friends to enjoy the festivities.

Before I log out I wanted to wish you all a very merry Christmas and, in particular, a happy new year.

This year has been tough on many levels for many people. I would like to say that 2012 will be better, but I know, economically at least, it could well be worse. But there are positives on the horizon and things to look forward to and I will be back in the new year, refreshed, and ready to take on whatever is thrown at us, starting with a campaign against Boris Johnson's fare rises bright and early at Edmonton Green station on the 3rd of January.

Until then, look after yourselves, and go steady with the sherry.
