After a busy Monday morning, I enjoyed a leisurely Christmas lunch (my first of the season) with the entire staff team in the now quiet St Michael's College refectory, sitting around a large horse-shoe of tables with a great view of all the traffic queuing both ways in Cardiff Road outside, making their ways to and from shopping in the city centre. By the time I was ready to leave, traffic had quietened down and I was able to drive home briefly before going into the office by bus for a couple of hours preparing debt-chasing letters to overdue subscribers, to reach them before year-end. There's still quite a lot of accounts tidying to be done before they're fit to be passed on to the auditor. Being in town gave me an opportunity to buy Clare's present. The streets were very busy with shoppers. No sign of the retail economy slackening this year in Cardiff, apparently sales are up, again. Other shopping centres are suffering, however.
