Christmas

I hope everyone had a good Christmas.
I had a lovely couple of days with Esther's family in Upper Minetry in Wiltshire. It was a proper English Christmas with Turkey, Christmas pudding, all the trimmings and a roaring fire. I am now back at work which is very quiet.

A Cold and Foggy Morning

This is London Fields, I live on an estate that looks out over this. Hundreds of flights out of Heathrow have been cancelled due to fog.

Work Christmas Party

Our work Christmas party was held in a Club in Covent Garden. Santa, a Portrait Artist and a live snake provided entertainment early in the evening.

Munich

I went to Munich for the weekend to see the
Christmas markets, my penfriend Nadine and her
boyfriend Ruben. Nadine and Ruben with mulled wine and Christmas cookies

Christmas Build Up

The shops are all putting up Christmas window displays at the moment. This one is from Fortnum and Masons. I went to a carol concert at St Martin in the Fields at Trafalgar Square on Saturday. The church is under scaffolding at the moment so doesn't look the best on the outside but is very beautiful inside with candles everywhere.

On Sunday I went to visit my cousin, Anna and her family in Surrey. I went to Polesden Lacey with them. Polseden Lacey is a historic home that is managed by the National Trust and has lovely manicured grounds.
