A Pre-Christmas Christmas

Miss U-t-B called it 'Fake Christmas'  (though in the end she rather loved it!)  - a special family meal together with an exchange of gifts last Sunday, because some of us are going to be out of the country for Christmas Day itself.  

And because I'm one of the ones now 'out of the country' all I can post here is a little collage put together by Zosia's lovely Mum, because although I thought I'd uploaded photos to use while I am away, I am clearly technologically challenged, as nothing has shown up!  

Ah well!

Here's our new house guest Rudolph; Zosia having the best sort of Christmas fun with some of the packaging; one of the biscuits I made as place settings; and our tree!  

I am very impressed with what Instagram has done to make it look so sparkly and magical!

I now find myself in France, with a large mountain in plain view from the window.
If it cracks open and aliens pour out tomorrow,  I will let you know!
