Here we go ...

5+ weeks of Xmas to come. The Lower Gardens and The Square were teeming with families with excited young kids, tourists and others.

Great to see people having fun, and hopefully helping the local economy. But this is not my favourite time of the year. Wish it was like Italy and Spain where it lasts a few days (at least that's how it was when we last went abroad). And their Xmas lights are magical. Here in Bournemouth they are generally abysmal.

We walked into town for a coffee at Blend, passing the Christmas Tree Wonderland blipped, then returned home.

Antibiotics finish tomorrow. Feel almost back to normal.
