On the seventh day of Christmas...

My true love gave to me,
Seven flowers a blooming,
Six decos a glowing,
Five gol-den baubles!
Four homemade Mince Pies,
Three sparkling Poinsettias,
Two Mummers Players,
And a fluffy cat sitting under a Christmas tree!

(I hope you're all singing along!)

A beautiful, sunny morning so went for a stroll through the park, where I spotted these Winter Jasmine flowers, blooming in the sunshine... And believe it or not, but there was a large Bumble Bee buzzing about amongst the flowers! In December!!

Whilst out, I stocked up on some bargain Mince Pies to see me through January and February! Just 24 of them!!

This afternoon we had a complete turnaround in the weather, with more torrential rain and strong winds, so what better way to spend a wet afternoon than by catching up on my blip journal. After five hours, I've managed to reply to comments from the last four weeks but I've still a week to do! It wasn't a chore at all, in fact I quite enjoyed revisiting my photos and your comments, reminding me of all that has happened over the last month, and I did have a large slice of Chocolate Yule Log to help me keep my energy up!!

Happy New Year to you all, when it comes!!
