You need to listenand look together for this one.

I am so very much in the mood for Christmas just now. I am in that post panic smugness where I think I have things under control and yet, in just a few days I will loose the plot and shout at everyone. Perhaps it is because it is just the boy and I in the house, perhaps it's because yesterday I picked up -on my very own - a tree and managed to get it home, I wrapped many parcels with ribbon and cellophane to within an inch of gorgeousness and I listened to a whole CD of the Lunds Kultureskolas Lucia concert. It was complete heaven.

Wrap that together with today spent in town gathering up last bits and bobs and I am so chilled I don't even need to open the sherry (oh go on then, it would be a waste not to wouldn't it).

There again there is that Andre Rieu concert tomorrow - now that will increase my stress levels. Still, I am prepared to be surprised.



The music is obviously a hand held recording but it is still well worth listening to - just be ready for the abrupt ending
