Gifts

 I slept in until 11 am and felt a bit better for it. 
Today I’ve delivered the village Christmas Cards and gifts for friends that will be alone this holiday.
I bought Christmas Angels for Hattie’s daughter Freyer and Polish Monika’s daughter Sophia and Christmas decorations for the Randa girls. 

I dropped a gift off at Mrs Trellis’ and it was nice to see a few presents and flowers already left for her on her doorstep .She was out with Jo and her three whippets ( with 11 legs) braving the light rain at dusk.

I was wet and tired by the time it was dark. 
Pizza for tea

    So glad you slept in this morning as you sure needed and deserved the extra sleep.
    Well done in spreading the joy with your fellow villagers and those special kids despite the light rain. Pizza and perhaps a warming beverage sound just right to help you thaw and not catch cold.

    Hugs!

    That's my job for today, dropping of gifts to people I like in my "village" (read neighbours) and trying to perfect choux buns for the third time! Pizza is my favourite thing to eat when I am famished yum! You are a good man John Gray.

    Being Trelawnyd's Santa is hard work, but someone has to do it! But very satisfying to have your cards and gifts delivered and another job done and dusted. Makes that pizza taste even better. And onwards to Christmas Day!

  13. It is the holiday season and gift giving reminds people that they are loved and well thought of. Spreading holiday cheer with friends and family is always enjoyed.

  15. I love the gift idea of the Christmas angels. This is such a wonderful part of Christmas for me, with the giving of gifts and the feeling of goodwill.

  16. What gift did you deem appropriate for Mrs Trellis? I am thinking 100ml of "Chanel No. 5", thermal bloomers (pink) or a pair of tickets for Hull City's next home match.
