Sending early Christmas and Happy New Year wishes to our friends and family. We will be having a very quiet and restful holiday period. Martin is on holiday for two weeks after today, and will be mainly resting. Hope you have a good time too. The picture is "The Shortening Winter's Day is near a Close" painted by Joseph Farquharson. We have had a large framed print of this since the late 1990s, bought from a glazier in Bonnygate, Cupar. It is currently up on our main wall in the sitting room, and very much enjoyed.


Wow!

Yesterday we were scrambling to clear space to plant the hollies that we put out for Midwinter tonight. This is the nadir though. It'll start getting lighter longer after the solstice.

Christmas is delay for us due to $WIFE's work schedule. We'll be doing Christmas dinner on Saturday.
