Hello Helen, another week gone by already. Hope Jack and Freya arrived home safely. Did you put your decorations up? Too early for me inside, but I’m planning on having the outside lights lit from the 6th. Also want to have a garland outside over the front door. We’ve nowhere to store a bought one so it will have to be hand made with green from the garden and whatever white or red bits I can find to add to it. The first coat of preservative is on the shed at last, another to do but not as urgent. Had a festive lunch at The Three Fishes at Mitton with Jeff’s birthday voucher on Wednesday and went to Sizergh yesterday. It was lovely, a woodland walk with light displays all the way and a Christmas tree in every room in the house. Nowhere near as grand as Chatsworth looks, but we enjoyed it. The rain held off mostly after a very wet day at home and it was a full moon. Had our tea in the cafe there too, turkey and all the trimmings. Today is a trip to Barton Grange Garden Centre and more Christmas shopping on Saturday, family meal on Sunday and the parish Christmas lunch at the Ribchester Arms on Monday (these things have to be done haha). I’m sure you’ll have lots more festive plans over the weekend -enjoy 🎄
