Deck The Trees …….

Sorry about the dodgy pictures again …… we’ve decided that we’re definitely going to ask Santa for a new one now!

The school run gets a little busier for Nigel and his beloved niece and nephew at this time of year as they try to spread the joy ……

…… and early this morning they were busy dressing one of the bare trees along the school path, with baubles bought by his lordship from the 10 for £1 baskets in various charity shops in Evesham ……..

It was …… emotional.

…… with each bauble thoughtfully hung ……..

…….. amidst the carefree and innocent excitement and dreams of our precious little ones, looking forward to a magical and happy Christmas all together ……

……and in the hope that others might follow to stop by, make a wish and help fill the tree by the end of the school term.

Such happy days, with traditions created and memories made to take into their futures …….. long after we have become threadbare and a little unstuffed ……. and in need of Toy Hospital!!!

  1. What a superb idea! I hope other people join in, on this tree, and others in Evesham. And beyond, round the whole world.

  2. P.S. Years ago, one summer, Mrs. D and I visited this town, en route back to Mexico City, where we made some considered bauble purchases, which are hung on the tree, this very moment.

Sorry we are going to have to add word verification our comments section as it seems we are again being bombarded with spam!!! So if your comment doesn't come up straight away it means that our lady "that does" is going through them with a fine toothcomb, so that the spammers don't get through .....This is such a robust pain in the bottom and as such we have boycotted all SPAM comestibles in protest ..... sandwiches, fritters, fricasse etc.!!!!!!
