Christmas Decorations again

Posted on December 10, 2005 by Henry Elliss

Well would you look at that – over 100 days without an update? What sort of an SEO expert must I be if I think THAT’s the way to maintain a good website… a bad one, that’s what. But hey – it’s wintery now and we’re very poor, so we can’t afford to do much to the house. Plus of course we got Married in New York and have the New Kittens to worry about too.

Either way, the time has come for the Christmas decorations to go up and since our friend Alex was visiting we decided to make a move on it. Unfortunately, as you can see below, the kittens decided they’d help out (see the site for more details – Our First Cat(s)) and we ended up with a trashed tree. So after the third time of standing it up and putting decorations on, Henry got cross and packed it all away again, declaring that "the cat’s have officially cancelled Christmas!". So we drove off to B&Q and found a lovely (anc cheap, and cat-proof) light decorationy type thing which is now where the tree was going to go. I think you’ll agree it looks rather nice – and I can report that so far, it has survived…

A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning walk. Some lovely sunrises, lots of ice on the canal and a couple of rivers and lakes that were quickly merging together, at the expense of the newly-laid track. At least my wellies stayed strong!

One good thing to come from this week’s rail strikes (and the subsequent week WFH) was my daily sunrise walks - something I really miss when I have to go into London. Fingers crossed that 2023 allows for a few more of them.
Merry Christmas, instagram family and friends. Ple Merry Christmas, instagram family and friends. Please enjoy this photo of our beautiful but low-key Christmas decorations, hung in the splendor of our delightful Tudor home.
