Plenty of excuses to stay indoors on what is all set up to be a perfect duvet day.
Christmas Day and St. Stephen’s Day are over and New Year’s Eve is still a couple of days away, but what better way to spend that lull in between than by lazing out on the couch and watching movies for hours on end?
Thankfully, with bitter conditions increasing one’s desire to stay indoors, there are plenty of options on the box to keep everyone occupied, from a couple of stonewall classics on RTÉ One in the afternoon to a recent Best Picture Oscar winner and a feature-length Alan Partridge flick later on tonight.
