To my Downer friends who aren't on Facebook, I hope you are enjoying a merrier world for the holiday season, however you celebrate the season.

Well, Bb, I know you on FB, but I'm happy to see you here on these mist-shrouded Downs and offer you a second holiday greetings anyway. I've been feeling nostalgic about the BD and toured through several old classics a few days ago. It's nice to see a few long-timers still hanging about!

Happy New Year!

As the unofficial family gift wrapper, I am beginning to wonder why we need this many presents. But hey, happy new year!

Happy New Year! I spent mine star-gazing- quite Tolkienesque, don't you think?

Snap. I did two lots besides my own. I did a friend who has twins and hand problems, then my own (and foolishly I had the bright idea that it would look nice to wrap all items separately in coordinating paper, tie together with contrasting ribbon and decorate with bows and mini tree decorations - Kirsty Allsopp has a lot to answer for), and was barely finished by Midnight Mass. Then on Christmas morning I had to do most of my Aunt's (whose house I was staying in) as my Uncle is sadly afflicted by dementia and kept distracting her (he also used to be chief wrapper in better days). Anyway the feasting would have satisfied the greediest Hobbit.
