Christmas 2006: indoors and out


For three whole days we couldn't see the bottom of the garden. The air was still and damp and chilly. What could we do other than stay in and start on the Thornton's?


We bought and decorated the tree, having performed the usual triage on the four sets of lights, which we keep in the repository. The tree is now, already, at the dump in preparation for our rapid getaway in a few days' time.

We have seen family and friends and enjoyed some good food. But there are too many chocolates left over, not to mention the Turkish Delight and calissons, which we haven't even opened yet.

Thank you for a lovely Christmas . Keep well . And may 2007 bring you happiness.

Hi Gwen.
Thanks for the lovely comment. I sometimes wonder if anyone reads my blog at all.. so your visit was much appreciated.
I hope 2007 brings you rewards and happiness and perhaps a new beginning.
Safe journey back to the jungle. And please blog. I love to hear about your daily life - it may be humdrum to you but it is extremely exotic and interesting to me!
