Here It Is

Christmas descends. I felt it come down on us yesterday. Like a fall of invisible snow. There's a new quality to the silence. As if the world had caught its breath. As if TinyTim's muffler had been wrapped round ears and mouth. We have entered the zone of ever so slightly altered reality. It's a one way tunnel of a certain length with no side exits.

Yes, that word tends to get used a lot.

And it usually seemed things were reaching a point of crisis just as the revellers drew level with out house.
