Just a quick Merry Christmas from me, and to thank you all for being part of a pretty mixed 2014.

It was the year that I was diagnosed with brain cancer, and the year I finally got over to Australia, a long held ‘bucket-list’ item. It was also the year that I bought my first house, ditched the city I call ‘home’ and moved out in to the Peak District, and I got to see Hedwig on Broadway.

I’m spending this Christmas in Bristol with Max’s family, so won’t be about much on the big day, but I do hope that all of my friends, both online and in real life, have a fantastic day and are where you want to be, with the people you want to be with and doing what you want to be doing.

I’m still very much trying to raise funds for my charity of choice, The Brain Tumour Charity – all that I’d like for Christmas is 50p, please?

Genuinely, Merry Christmas guys, and thank you once again for joining me for the ride!
