Wishing you all a very happy and healthy festive period. I wish that I could send you: A bird to keep your soul safe.

A Leaf Lantern to light your way.

A stool for an extra few inches.

A clock to mark the minutes.

Something pretty to keep you warm.

Somewhere to hold your tea.

And, that bird is for me!

I can’t lie, I will be glad to see the back of this year, artificial marker though it is, onwards.

Run My Children, Don’t Look Back.
