Merry Christmas!

All is calm here. Now that the food is prepared and the presents are wrapped, I can relax. Tomorrow we will be at home and my Mum will spend the day with us.

When I was a little girl we always went to my Gran’s house for Christmas Day and spent it with my cousins.

Here they are resplendent in their seventies jumpers, brown of course. We lost my eldest cousin earlier this year, as many of you will know, and I have been thinking of her a lot this week.

And here I am with my little brother. Happy times.

Wishing you a Christmas filled with love, laughter and perhaps some quiet reflection.
