Christmas eve shopping

So, today we went to Ludlow. Not because we needed to get anything present-wise, oh no. The last ones were bought yesterday! Instead we thought it might be nice to just have a mooch round the shops and the market. And indeed it was nice. We bumped into next door and had a coffee with them - Creme brûlée latte for me, roasted hazelnut mocha for herself - you can't say we're not getting in the spirit!

My American cousins are always amazed that we take for granted old buildings dotted around the place that are older than their country! These ones are a fine example.

Aahhh, Christmas. Pour me another!
