Christmas Eve

Once all the Christmas shopping was finished, it was time to meet friends in the Mutton Lane Inn for creamy Christmas Eve pints.

The Mutton is a tiny little pub, tucked away on one of the alleys off Patrick Street that leads into the English Market, where I once worked. It's full of character, much like my baby brother, Chris, who was curiously coordinated with the lane's famous Anthony Ruby mural!

It was so nice to see friends for a few hours, some of whom I bumped into unexpectedly, before heading to my older brother's house for a family meal and the exchange of gifts. Happy, happy Christmas times.
