Blip Advent Calendar - Day 9!

Opening up window 9 to reveal a beautiful, giant Christmas tree inside the bookshop at Salts Mill. It was absolutely stunning, as were all the trees dotted about the mill. Gorgeously done and giving a wonderful atmosphere to an already lovely place.

The Christmas tree combined with the collection of children's Christmas books made for a lovely cosy feel. Much needed after an exceptionally wet morning walk. I was absolutely dripping!!

This afternoon I went over to Matthew's and we strolled to the mill, in the tiny dry spot, and after a great look around strolled back...in the torrential rain!

Just sitting down to paint my nails a baby pink called So Fantasy with a top coat of glitter named Disco Daze. Of course it's also Strictly Semi Final time too!

Today's quote reflecting on the wonder of a Christmas tree is...
"The Christmas tree is a symbol of love, not money. There's a kind of glory to them when they're all lit up that exceeds anything all the money in the world could buy." - Unknown
