Ho Ho Ho

Time to get Madame Guillotine out for chopping the Christmas card inserts to size.
Each year Marlane prints the inserts to go into the cards to make them more personal. Each card then has to have a hand written message, a bit more for some people that we don't see much of, sometimes for years at a time. Many years ago we used to do a 'Round Robin' letter but stopped when we got back to the UK, just didn't seem as exciting a life to tell people about.
In the next couple of days I'll be given the go ahead to get myself up into the attic to drag the tree and decoration boxes out, and then put the boxes back up again until they come down yet again in the the new year to pack it all away again. It's a lot of work but she always makes Christmas so lovely.
