Congrats to Giles and Polly for hosting a fab Christmas party last night! We went on quite late in the end, with the result that the music that I’d put together at the last minute on Polly’s laptop unfortunately didn’t quite last through the night.

In the end I ended up replaying a big chunk of the precompiled playlist and a whole bunch of songs off CDs nearer the end – almost proper DJing! Lots of fun, and nice to have an excuse to stay slightly soberer that I otherwise would have been – perhaps I’ll do it again sometime.
