With no extra dogs in the house for the first time in nine years, you would think that my preparations for Christmas would be calm and orderly!!!
I seem to have been flying around for a week with the list of 'to do' never getting any smaller.
Today was no exception and my one and only chance of a blip was this scene in Topsham where we parked the car before meeting Martyn and Sue for a drink

I have been really rubbish at commenting on your journals this week for which I apologise. 
Everything will be back to normal soon and I look forward to catching up with all your news.
