You know Christmas is fast approaching when ....

........ the Salvation Army appear in town playing wonderful Christmas Carols.

I could have stayed listening to them yesterday but I had Christmas shopping to do and sadly not enough time. I do love hearing them play the Christmas Carols though in the run up to Christmas - seems to "put you in the mood" somewhat.

The Salvation Army is a Protestant Christian church known for its thrift stores and charity work and it's members work tirelessly to help those who are less fortunate. It is an international movement that currently works in over a hundred countries.

It was a lovely surprise seeing them in Swansea yesterday and on such a cold day too!!
