Lights...tinsel...balls

Christmas has begun - all my boys are back home and we're about to sit down to eat. We've jointly decorated the tree - Ben and Alex put the lights up, Chris draped the tinsel and I arranged the balls, while Pete put up the remaining curtains. The room is nearly perfect and I'm making the most of it, sitting here at the computer with a glass of crisp white wine.

I'm afraid I didn't manege to get out today, though the weather was hardly inviting - grey, wet and very chilly. Hopefully, tomorrow normal service will be resumed.
