1 All the little Father Christmas figures are on the stairs, lit by tea-lights so that Father Christmas can find his way up the stairs tomorrow night.

3 Tonight we have had my favourite meal of the year – Ginger Glazed Ham simmered first in coca cola and then baked, served with creamy mash, homegrown broad beans and broccoli.

I’m going to get busier as the first of our family arrive tomorrow evening, from Barcelona, so I’d like to take this opportunity to wish all my lovely readers a
HAPPY CHRISTMAS
and A Peaceful New Year full of beauty.
