A new year... a new decade...

...a new Doctor! But I'm not watching that until Sunday, so no discussing it...

Anyway, my New Year's Eve was great, up in KW again at J*&P&A's house, generating new Jersey Shore names for us all (I'm apparently H-Cat) and playing Wii Sport Resort (I'm getting one soon, maybe today). And also discussing our favourite albums of the last decade.

I have a sucky memory, as you already know I'm sure, so I used my iPod to collect these. My list will likely alter once I've had more time to think about it, but here's an initial list of 25.
