It is quite something!

And here too for a few seconds, plus à robin that had read the instructions on how to create a Christmas card.

Family and happy chaos. Grandson wants vintage clothes for a present so all secondhand shops being inspected. There is far too much cheese in the house. And chocolate. And apero snacks.The turkey was delivered and I’m pleased as Grand Frais hadn’t any of a family size.

Give people cheap or free renewable energy, and nimbyism will disappear in a puff. That's my wholly unresearched opinion.

Family off to Grand Frais tomorrow. Turkey being delivered. Our very local butcher closed down. I’m hoping the new supplier is decent.

Far too many and last night I made a morbid count and the extent to which the friendship circle has shrunk is really sad. I know I’m in the vulnerable age group but it doesn’t make it easier.

Good morning. I love trees and am so pleased to have planted a dozen in the garden here and also been able to buy nearby broadleaf woodland to keep it from being destroyed.
