We will be on our own this Christmas, just the two of us, which means it probably won't be much different from any other day! But I insist on putting up a few decorations, plus all the cards we get, plus my little Nativity scene. This was made in Peru, and as well as Joseph, Mary and the Baby Jesus, includes a sheep and a very surprised llama!
The dreadful weather the UK has been experiencing this week has mostly missed us by. We have had torrential rain, and very high winds, but it is sunny now, even if the wind is perishing cold! Hopefully the snow, which is forecast for Cumbria and the Pennines will pass us by!
So all I can do is to wish you all a very happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year, and I promise to try and publish more blogs in 2014!
