‘Twas the night before Christmas

Posted by Fiona Nevile in Christmas | 5 comments

“‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the house Not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse;” Clement Clarke Moore (1779 – 1863)

Except me and a small Min Pin companion who had discovered a plate of delicious crumbs when taking a midnight stroll in the sitting room.

Happy Christmas everyone.

Hi Z

Happy Christmas to you and The Sage!

Hi Toffee Apple

We had a very quiet Christmas but it was lovely to put our feet up, light the log fire and chill.

Hi Pat

I do hop that your Christmas was good and that the new year brings happiness to you and Brian.

Hi Sam,

Happy Christmas to you to. I’ve tried the sloe vodka but we need to have a ceremonial tasting of the sloe gin!
