Updates

The week between Christmas and New Year is a funny one, no-one really knows what day it is, and we're all carrying a bit of regret for the 8 million calories we consumed in the last few days.

We're in Northern France this year, at my mother-in-laws house. It's been a lovely break, but I'm also looking forward to flying back to Ireland later today to get back to some normality.

I've been using the break to start planning out 2026, and also the next evolution of my site and newsletter. I'll make some changes this week, and then the first edition of 2026 will be all new. I'm excited for what is next.

Reading. Albert Camus - The Outsider (a Christmas gift from my wife - really enjoying it)

Albums of the Year - 2025
One of the hardest posts to put together each year... my albums of the year, in no particular order.

I've not listened to any new music this week - there aren't many new releases to focus on and I've been in full family mode, so my AOTY list is worth a look for something new to listen to!

Listened Stuff

Nothing this week - normal service resumed next!
