I always liked the idea of year zero somehow.
So it looks like I get to be 30 first – only 5 weeks to go. Hallelujah.
The long slow slide into oblivion begins. Oddly enough the most startling, creep-up-unexpected fact is not that I’ll be 30, but that my ‘little’ brother will shortly be 27. That kind of brings the point home. I wonder if my older brother or father feel the same about my unnecessarily feared milestone.

The details are yet to be tied down and beaten into submission. What’s clear is I’m not having a flat party – it’s only a few months since the last one (and I suspect I couldn’t top it anyway). The dates to keep free are:
- London: 2nd March
- Edinburgh: 9th March
- NYC (fingers crossed): 16th March
If you feel the need to get me a token gift to make up for my appalling Xmas then that would be appreciated. I think the favourite present is already in the bag though (thanks Dad) – the wrapping is Xootr-shaped.

I’m scared too. ~6 more months for me. How come we’re not millionaires yet? It all seemed so simple at school.
Tsk: Yesterday, that was simply the sound of a can of Asahi opening. Today, it is the sound of a bout of depression and anxiety brought on by the realization of a 29.5 straight years of under achievement….
