Just after Christmas Simon, Nick and Jim got together and recorded a show, but because life and reasons it never got released… So here it is in all of its “glory”! Sound quality isn’t as good as usual because a) Simon had just moved and wasn’t properly set up, and b) this was recovered from the backup recordings… also for the same reason there aren’t any proper show notes, they got overwritten months ago – apologies (though being months out of date I don’t suppose that matters too much!)
