The Girl With The Pearl Earring

Emergency call from Hope that a parent had to come and be present when she got her ears pierced so I rushed to Jenner’s. Busy but not as festive as it used to be in my childhood. Then to Fopp and Richer Sounds to identify presents. Idea for the eldest too, even if she doesn’t maybe deserve anything. Later I failed to buy a tree; at £60 you want a decent one.
