I'm feeling a bit miffed that the recent 'seasonal' attack of lurgy has left me totally knackered from coughing. It's nothing serious, and I think that the flu' jab and pneumonia vaccine have done a good job so far this winter. The reason for miffdom is that I've had to opt out of various seasonal events, the most noteworthy being the Christmas Concert of Singing Aloud, which was last night.

| Setting out the food |
'Tis also the season for having fun and celebrating the friendships formed through the knitting group. So yesterday morning, I dosed up on the inhaler and attended the Kristmus Koffee-morning Knitting session. The food was fabulous and the coffee and tea provided by the Sun Hotel was excellent.

The members of Hitchin Stitchin' are a thoughtful bunch. There was gluten-free chocolate and orange cake, gluten-free sandwiches and dairy-free tea-bread, as well as the usual offerings of mince pies and sausage rolls and some upmarket smoked salmon rolls and spicey samosas.

| The Angel |
We had a minor panic at the beginning as there was no heat in our usual meeting room The Angel. The hotel has had some renovations done recently and the staff had yet to get to grips with the new boiler. Great efforts were made on our behalf, two portable heaters were brought in but were not needed as the radiators finally began to give out heat.
