Nativity Activity

Today was very grey and cold. It made me feel very lethargic but I gave myself a kick up the backside - especially as I hadn't yet got my blip image for the day!
First on the cards was a trip to a local Morrisons to see if I could get a supply of square sausage (see previous blip 12th August). Unfortunately, after my initial delight at finding it there it has now disappeared again and I had to content myself with something called "Breakfast patties" from the freezer section (I think it's supposed to be like the sausage part of a McDonald's sausage and egg McMuffin). I'll report back on whether it passes muster!
From there I ventured back to The Friars (our local Carmelite Priory) where I took today's shot. This nativity scene has been a mainstay of our Christmas as far back as I can remember. It is housed in one of the small chapels at the Priory and we have visited it every year since I was little kid. One of the details that always sticks in my mind is that the figure of the baby Jesus never actually appears until Christmas Eve.
