It’s Finally December 1st 2023 ……..Woo Hoo Hoo

It’s finally Advent, the first day of our most favourite month of the year ……. we’ve tossed away our civvies with unfettered abandon and donned our beloved, gay apparel, which to quote the much warbled song “And … it feels …. soooooooooooo good ……”

Darrell has done us proud yet again, with his Frozen inspired tree …….

….. and, let’s just say, that no shelf, ledge or window sill has been left bare by all his expert “curating” as he likes to call it, everything has been festooned and adorned to an inch of it’s life, with his charity shop finds, not only from this year, but since we’ve been here.  He says, that at Christmas, there is no “less is more”

I don’t know how he’s does it year after year, but old Darrell has turned The Towers into a veritable, magical wonderland, where anything goes, so long as it says “Christmas”.  What is he like?

And then, what better way is there to start this joyous month but by celebrating with a delicious, festive Christmas ring from Iceland (the frozen food centre, not the cold yet unfeasibly romantic volcanic island).

However, today there will be no score on our world famous Richter Scale of Noms, these delights are purely for our unadulterated, comestible, yuletide pleasure ………..

…… but, they were rather lovely!

Happy next 31 days, which, being such a busy time of year, with lots going on, we’ve decided to post on Saturday and Sundays as well, for the next three and a half weeks to try and fit everything in!   Happy days indeed ……..

Well done, Darrell! A superb start to the month. I'm sure Miss Iris and Master Bertie are already very excited. Not to mention young Mister Nigel.
