Christmas shopping day.

My Christmas holidays started today.  Yipee! Two whole weeks  :)

I went to Oban to do some Christmas shopping and felt all nostalgic.  I remember stopping for lunch when the children were wee and watching a seal bobbing about in the harbour,  and thinking what a lovely place this is to do your Christmas shopping.  
Everything is so expensive this year! Both the children have said they don't want 'stuff' so I've had to moderate my shopping and resist the temptation to buy Christmas nonsense.  A good thing I suppose!
