Not having a family or partner I shall be spending Christmas on my own however whilst those of you forced to entertain the in laws, spend a vast fortune on presents for your kids which will be discarded within a couple of days, and eating tasteless turkey/ I shall be watching Wagner's Ring cycle a rough time table is as follows
Tonight from 7 : pm - 9:30
Das Rheingold
10:30 to midnight approx
Act 1: Das Valkyrie
Christmas Day
10:00 am to 12:30 pm Act II Das Valkyrie (the Crucial act in my opinion)
2:00 - 3:30 Act III Das Valkyrie (Means I wont be watching the queen';s speech oh dear what a pity ;))
Cook my special dinner
6:00 - 7:30 Act I Siegfried
9:00 - 10:30 Act II Siegfried
Boxing Day
10: 11:30 Act III Siegfried
1:00 - 3:30 Act I Gotterdammerung
5:00 - 6:30 Act II Gotterdammerung
8:00 - 9:30 Act III Gotterdammerung
So I've stocked up on food and booze and if I get through that timetable I shall be as high as a kite and pissed as a newt and sufficiently energised to get back to some maths after that. I'll give a post on what I think the ring cycle means
Anyway whatever you are doing over the festive season have a good one
Best wishes to you all Chris
A unique and worthy way to celebrate Christmas on your own. I hope you enjoyed it. - nilo
