Scrooged (1988) Bill Murray doing what Bill Murray does best. Being awesome. Easily one of my favourite Christmas films (along with Die Hard).

Never mind that, where's my crate of booze I've ordered for Christmas?

Also, unlike a lot of you I look forward to the snow. The Cairngorms have 10 runs open today, instead of yesterdays 6. By the time the weekend comes there will be plenty of boarding to be done! Shame I don't have the time to take advantage of it until mid-December.

Light dusting in Elgin and Fochabers when I was there at 9am, the lads I have working out there said everything was white by the time they left at 3pm. Light flurries in Inverness and Alness in the afternoon, just starting to lie in Alness now. If you want to waste a few minutes of your time at work I recommend having a look at the Traffic Scotland Live Eye Cameras. Always a good way to see where the snow is!

The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009) Not a bad film, relatively predictable. But decent enough performances from John Travolta, Denzel Washington and John Turturro. No real twists, and not a an excessive amount of action, but somehow still seemed to be quite a brief film despite being almost 2 hours. 7/10

The reason they have to ask for the bond, is because there is alternative measures that can be taken at this stage, i.e. demotion etc. In the case of Stranraer etc, they were already into the season and the only option could have been to disregard all of the results against them.
