The night before Christmas...

was ever so pleasing as Helen's drive has been redone this year, avoiding muddy feet from here on in. What a good Christmas gift.

Hanging with the Thompstone family on Christmas Eve was a good dose of nostalgia with Judy making stuffing and us drinking tea next to the aga.

Farmhouse at night + moon the best I could manage given that I was in bed most of the day with man flu.
