We had a morning trip out to North Street to buy a few more presents. I think we’re pretty much done now, which is good because we don’t have a free weekend before Christmas now. We also managed a quick brekkie at Grounded and some coffees from VX. Saw another victim of Storm Arwen in the park.

Home to chill for a few hours, and I did a little bit of festive crafting. In the evening we went to the pub with Bill, Madds and Beano - absolutely freezing but the heaters outside actually kept us reasonably warm. Paul and Elly stopped by briefly to drop off Burly to us - he’s coming for a sleepover tonight.

Home for the family zoom (including Burls), then dinner (stew and dumplings). Burly pretty much napped all evening, then came with us at bedtime and slept next to the bed all night.
