SATURDAY - No work for a full nine days bliss even if the temperature has dropped to minus one the sun is out we are putting the outside Christmas lights up hopefully it wont take too long got to get in the Christmas spirit regardless. We used the clips on the soffit and gutters from previous years ten minutes it was done another twenty mins to do the railings fir tree and the walking sticks it is looking good .
Bought some some mince pies and some stollen and Christmas cake with marzipan and icing .Helen bought a wreath for the front door and some more lights she also bought two small Christmas trees for both our bedside drawers .I don't advocate anyone getting in to debt for Christmas and I know some wont even manage a Turkey dinner .Through out the world there are people worse off specially in Europe and the Middle East on all sides for them Christmas will be surviving the onslaught hopefully peace comes quickly for all those fighting wars .
All the farmers tractors descended to the village for a Christmas procession it occurs every year we always manage to see it this year we was extremely lucky we witnessed most of the decorated festive tractors loads of people where in the village centre to see it ,
