Old friends

A pleasant trip to Norfolk and back to see my Mum and Dad (a 4 1/2 hour each way drive unfortunately) but the first time I've seen them over Christmas in a couple of years as this year I took extra time off over Christmas.

Their Christmas tree was up, and they still have some of the baubles that we put on the tree (my sister and I) when we were kids.

Scary to think that's so many years ago now, but it still brings back memories of decorating the tree when we were kids. Some of the decorations are older than me, but they're still going strong.

Yes, the bell is pink, but it (sort of) tinkles if you shake it (carefully) and that used to fascinate me when I was a toddler.
