Fizzling Out

The stumpy remains of my advent candle.  

We had a trip to IKEA today to look for some boxes to fit inside the cupboard of the lovely desk that came from my mum’s flat.  I remember it being in the houses I lived in with mum and dad.  We decided to brave the crowds in the cafe -Mary and Mark had meatballs and I had smoked salmon ( as you do when you visit that shop)
