Kenny&rsquo;s official girlfriend&rsquo;s <strong>bum</strong> broke my last pair of glasses - whether by an act of omission or one of commission I know not any more.</p> <p>The entire street was lined with Christmas decorations, and manequinns waltzing to the sounds of well known carols blaring from the speakers on all the shops - Fenwick, M&amp;S and the lot. It is a sharp reminder that its another Christmas away from family.</p>
