Christmas Tree

Last night it was very blustery and this has continued all day with heavy rain showers, due to Storm Darragh. 
I ventured out to visit my Mother for yet another Christmas card writing session! We were doing quite well until John , another resident,  a long retired senior police officer, joined us and started regaling me with some of his rather lurid stories from his career. I actually like him a lot because he has been very kind to my Mum and they have breakfast together every morning in the dining room on their floor. They choose different music to listen to ( via Alexa) each day and have intelligent discussions together. 
When I returned home at lunchtime I found Martin had put up our Christmas tree and decorated it in his favoured " the more the better" style ! It had to be my blip for today.
Later we wrote some of our own cards.
