Looks like Harry's Place has been hacked. Hope that the site is up again by the time I write this post; otherwise, what else will I have to occupy my time?
Update: Interested parties have just heard the bad news

Damn, I go a couple of days without checking you out and here you are with a post?! Any chance of any more postings? A "Xmas in New York City" post perhaps? A rant about how crappy and commercial it is? Hope you're both well btw...
Isn't there a Pogues song which might sum up this Scottish geezers Xmas, esp. if the Bhouys do like they did last week against Dumfermeline? lol. :D
Harry is back!
Hello Lisa,
thanks for the kind words. I'm afraid that my blogging mojo has yet to reassert itself, but the blog will be the first to know if it ever does kick in again. ;-)
Graham,
trust a death metalist with a tin ear to not know that the Pogues were plastic paddies, rather than shortbread tin scots.
I consulted Paul Gambiccini, and he assures me that you are possibly referring to the Pogues classic 'Fairytale of New York', one of the best ever Xmas pop singles - second only to the Waitresses's 'Christmas Wrapping, IMHO - and a beautiful duet between Shane and the late, great Kirsty Maccoll, no less.
As most New Yorkers think my accent is Irish rather than Scottish, I can't get be too censorious with you for mislabelling Pogue Mahone. ;-)
